Elephant Watch Camp

Birdwatching around the Ewaso Nyiro River allows you to explore a wide range of habitats including riverbanks, open savannah, bushland and woodland areas in northern Kenya. Guided walks and drives can take you through different zones where bird species vary depending on season, time of day and water availability. You’ll observe raptors, waterbirds, hornbills and smaller species across the landscape while moving between observation points with an experienced guide.

The activity focuses on identification, behaviour and habitat rather than speed or distance, and can be adapted to different levels of interest. Birding offers a structured way to explore the region’s biodiversity.

Riding on horseback through the landscapes surrounding the Ewaso Nyiro River, you’ll explore sections of northern Kenya that are often less accessible by vehicle. Guided rides are available for different experience levels, with horses matched to your ability and routes planned according to terrain and conditions. As you move across open plains, riverbanks and bush areas, you’ll encounter wildlife such as antelope, giraffes and various bird species at a respectful distance.

Guides accompany each ride, focusing on safety and awareness of animal movement in the area. Horse riding offers a slower way to cover ground and experience the conservancy while moving through its natural environment.

Tracking wildlife along the Ewaso Nyiro River, you’ll join guided safari drives and walks through the surrounding conservancy areas in northern Kenya. Depending on conditions and timing, you’ll observe elephants, giraffes, zebras, antelope species and a variety of birdlife across open savannah and riverine zones. Experienced guides lead the routes, using knowledge of animal movement patterns to locate wildlife while maintaining safe viewing distances.

Game drives typically take place in open vehicles, while some experiences include short walking sections in designated areas. The safari offers a structured way to explore the region’s ecosystem and observe wildlife behaviour in its natural environment.
