Kigio Wildlife Conservancy
A private conservancy on the Malewa River where you can walk or cycle on guided safaris to see Rothschild's giraffes and white rhinos.
The conservancy lies about 25 km north of Naivasha, near Gilgil, and covers roughly 3,500 acres of acacia woodland and grassland along the Malewa River. It is an important breeding site for the endangered Rothschild's giraffe, and it also hosts white rhinos, zebras, greater kudu and hippos. With no lions or other large predators, visitors can explore on foot or by bicycle with a guide. There are lodges and camps on site. Visitor numbers are low, making it well suited to nature lovers.
