The Laikipia Plateau is a destination with wildlife, boasting some of Kenya's most unique and endangered species, including the Grevy’s zebra, the reticulated giraffe, and the endangered African wild dogs. The private conservancies scattered across the plateau provide a tranquil alternative to Kenya's busier national parks, offering intimate wildlife encounters in peaceful settings. The region’s landscapes are as diverse as its fauna, ranging from the savannahs and rocky outcrops to lush riverine forests and snow-capped mountain views.
