Is the Ol Malo Lodge for Me?
Ol Malo is a privately owned game sanctuary on the banks of the Uaso Nyiro River in Kenya’s wild and beautiful Laikipia region. It is 5000 acres of spectacular bush country overlooked by Mount Kenya and teeming with the elusive antelope from which the land takes its name.
In this setting on a rock escarpment on the edge of the Laikipia Plateau, bordering the tribal heartlands of the nomadic Samburu people.
Near the original family home, a comfortable sitting and dining room welcomes you to one of Kenya’s most breathtaking views.
Ideal for your honeymoon and a couple’s getaway, a maze of slated pathways winds down to four rock and olive wood cottages.
Located on the cliffs, each room has its own veranda and complete privacy. It also has en-suite bathrooms and the famous Francombe baths.
Looking out from your cozy bed, you will see large picture windows framing Mt Kenya and the constantly changing landscape. An infinity pool adds to the lodge’s beauty and amenities. Ice, cold drinks, lunch, and al fresco are served to you at the pool and are a very informal affair, followed by an afternoon by the pool, relaxing, or a visit to the Ol Malo shop.
Horse riding, camel riding, nature walks, night drives, picnic breakfasts and lunches, river walks, sundowners on the rocks, barbeques in the bush, a visit to the Samburu workshop, and the use of a helicopter to get a bird’ s-eye view are some of the many on-site activities, which offer you an experience of a lifetime.
