Sabuk Lodge

(Laikipia - Kenya)

General Description
Sabuk Lodge is a stunning wilderness destination, perched on the high banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River in the Northern Frontier District of Kenya, overlooking the Laikipia Plateau and Samburu land. 

The region nurtures exceptional wildlife and cultural diversity, home to many communities including the Laikipiak Masai and the Samburu tribes. Around Sabuk the area is wild and hilly, with dense acacia bush, greater kudu, reticulated giraffe, buffalo, impala, elephant, klipspringer, zebra, eland, dik dik, waterbuck, lion, leopard, great bird watching and incredible scenery. Sabuk Lodge has well trained guides, who will show you the best of this stunning region on game drives or guided walking safaris.

Sabuk was fashioned out of the local landscape, with local materials, twisted wood and stone boulders incorporated into the architecture. Open walls and private verandah’s face out over the river gorge 150 feet below.

Sabuk Fly Camp is perfect for clients spending 3 or more days. Walk with a professional safari guide, a team of trained Laikipia Masai warriors and camel train through completely deserted tracts of wilderness: no other tourists, no roads or vehicles, only wildlife and their tracks, breathtaking scenery and the sounds of the bush.

Accommodation
Perched high on the riverbanks, Sabuk’s 6 cottages are open at the front with stunning views of the river and cliffs. Each thatched rondavel (circular cottage) has its own unique design, crafted from local stone and ancient cedar and olivewood, gathered from the local area. En-suite bathrooms, modern flush toilets and a private verandah with a view make each cottage a haven in itself. There is also a family cottage accommodating up to 6 persons.
