overview

Only a few miles from the equator, Loisaba is set in 60 000 acres of beautiful wilderness. Constructed from stone, local timber and thatch, the lodge is perched high on the edge of the plateau looking south towards Mount Kenya.

Explore this remarkable wilderness as you trek through the bush on camels, mountain bike down the escarpment, raft the Ewaso Nyiro, horseback ride or drive through the wild canyons of the 2 great rivers that span this vast area.

The ranch also owns a micro-light and aeroplane so there are limitless opportunities for you to try new and unexpected activities, such as a heli-camp, followed by surfing down the remote sand dunes of the Northern Frontier District, or rock-climbing the soaring pinnacles which thrust from the valley floor.

Traveller Reviews

  • Starbeds: Awesome place… great great food and the best guide we had who was Lukus ..It's too bad we were in a rush to leave and forgot to sign the guest book because he deserves a mention for sure.

  • Loisaba was like the Twilight Zone. I couldn't imagine something this amazing in the middle of nowhere. The landscaping was out of this world.
