Ol Pejeta Conservancy is renowned for its commitment to wildlife conservation, hosting a variety of species, including the Big Five. Rhinos, both black and white, roam freely within the conservancy, contributing to vital conservation efforts. Elephants, lions, leopards, and buffalos add to the impressive lineup of wildlife.

Best Time to Visit:

Ol Pejeta Conservancy offers a rewarding safari experience throughout the year, but the dry seasons from June to September and January to February are considered optimal for wildlife viewing. During these periods, the vegetation is less dense, and animals congregate around water sources, providing excellent opportunities for sightings.

Birdwatchers will appreciate the diverse avian population, with over 500 species recorded in the conservancy. The wetter months from October to December and March to May bring migratory birds, adding an extra dimension to the birdlife.

Ol Pejeta Conservancy invites conservation-minded travelers to witness the success of community-based wildlife protection and the ongoing efforts to preserve endangered species. Whether you're captivated by the iconic rhinos, the majestic elephants, or the harmonious coexistence of diverse wildlife, Ol Pejeta promises an immersive safari experience rooted in the principles of sustainable conservation.
