Stretching from the slopes of Mount Kenya on the northern side to the outskirts of the Rift Valley lies the Laikipia plateau famous for one of the largest elephant populations in East Africa (over 3000) and is one of the last strongholds of the endangered Black Rhino. Even though there are scattered farms and cattle ranches, it is still a wilderness and a wildlife refuge supporting huge numbers of game. With more mammals than elsewhere in the East Africa it remains almost unknown compared to reserves like Maasai Mara, Samburu even though advantaged by the increase of wildlife in numbers over a period over the years. You can also spot the endangered Jackson’s Hartebeest. Other game includes lion, cheetah, wild dog, impala, gazelle, reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra and the leopard.
