• Family Fun - with plenty to keep kids of all ages entertained, this is an ideal destination for the whole family; there's swimming, camel rides, fishing and even lessons in special bushcraft skills.

• Camel Safari - this unique experience is led by the trained Laikipiak Masai Guides across the dry-lake bed or following the river path across the plains.

• Leave The Car Behind - get back to nature with walks along the river, picnics on the shady banks, a refreshing dip in the natural rock pools or simply basking on the main deck overlooking the plains.

Sabuk Lodge is perched high on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River in the Northern Frontier District, overlooking the Laikipi Plateau and Samburu land.

The lodge's interior has a homely feel with the open dining room and sitting room furnished with colourful cushions, hand crafted furniture and woven rugs. The exterior is in harmony with the surrounding locale and incorporates local materials, twisted wood and stone boulders.

Safari activities at Sabuk include camel treks which can be tailor-made to suit all ages and levels of fitness. These unique trails are led by the trained Laikipiak Masai Guides across the dry-lake bed or following the river path across the plains. More traditional ventures include game drives, guided walks and fishing.

Sabuk Lodge is located in Northern Laikipia, Kenya.

• Balcony

Fine cuisine is served either in the dining room or on the private veranda of your cottage. There is also the option of breakfast or lunch in the bush, for that authentic African experience.

You can also opt for sundowners in the bush followed by a night game drive back to the lodge, during which you may see bush babies or aardvark.

Perched on the cliffs above the Ewaso Nyiro River, Sabuk Lodge's 5 cottages are open at the front with stunning views of the river and cliffs.

Each thatched rondavel (circular cottage) is uniquely designed, with an emphasis on harmony with the surrounding landscape, and crafted from local stone, cedar and olive wood.

All cottages have verandas and en-suite bathrooms, 2 of which feature deep stone baths with views over the river and the surrounding wilderness.

If you plan to spend more than 3 days here you could choose accommodation under canvas at Sabuk Fly Camp. To get there you would walk with a professional safari guide, a team of trained Laikipiak Maasai warriors and camel train through the wilderness. There are no roads to the camp, so you'll be surrounded by wildlife and the sounds of the bush.
