Sabuk is remote and beautiful ... an alluring haven on the edge of the Northern Frontier District on a cliff overlooking the Ewaso Nyiro River which flows past the camp all year round. Sabuk offers stunning views of the Laikipia plains towards Mount Kenya and northwards to the Karissia Hills and Mathews Mountains.
Sabuk remains a family home. Our guest cottages are secluded; each a unique design, open fronted with generous double or twin beds, hand carved wooden furniture, en-suite bathrooms with flush toilets, hot showers and sumptuous deep stone baths with amazing views.
Children are very welcome at Sabuk. Early mealtimes, a child "look out" service and big day beds and cushions for siestas make this a restful haven for families on safari.
At Sabuk we work closely with the Community. The Laikipiak Maasai share their tribal and bushcraft skills, tracking animals, pointing out the medicinal and other uses of local fauna and flora, teaching a new way of looking at the wilderness surrounding you.
The Sabuk team has been operating camel assisted walking safaris for the last 20 years and continue to do so. This age old style of safaris can be tailor made to suit all guests and all levels of fitness. Walking or riding, the choice is up to you - a camel back is a great vantage point for the surrounding scenery. This is the ultimate retreat from the rat race: no cars, no tarmac roads, just the African bush ...
Sabuk is an addictive getaway for a couple, a group of friends or a family ... there is space and something special for everyone: be it as active or passive as you choose. Guests staying at the Lodge can enjoy a taste of the full camel safari with either a half or a full day bush walk with the camels, led by trained Laikipiak Maasai Guides across the hills or following the meandering river path across the Kenyan plains.
Also game drives and night drives back to the Camp after sundowners. Other activities include horse riding (by arrangement), mornings, lunch or afternoons spent on the banks of the river where a natural pool has formed, bush breakfasts and evening sundowners overlooking a dam which is a favourite elephant watering hole ...
