Use this interactive map of Kenya's Laikipia region to explore

Laikipia and the Northern Frontier District - Laikipia is wild and sparsely populated offering a real sense of freedom and adventure, with far reaching views of Mount Kenya. Much of this Reserve is covered by large, privately owned ranches, populated by cattle sharing the land with free ranging wildlife.

The Ewaso Nyiro River links Laikipia to the adjacent Samburu region where highlights include Shaba National Reserve. It was here that Joy Adamson spent her final years, returning Penny the leopard to the wild.

Meru National Reserve - The least visited of Kenya’s national parks and reserves, Meru is an unspoiled wilderness. It was here that George and Joy Adamson returned Elsa the lioness to the wild as depicted in the film, Born Free. Meru’s landscape is characterised by stands of Doum Palm trees, dense forests, rolling hills and rocky outcrops or ‘kopjes’.
