Borana Conservancy

Kenya’s most successful conservancy, with a thriving population of black and white rhinos

Home » Destinations » Kenya » Borana Conservancy
Borana Conservancy is a 32,000-acre private conservancy in northern Kenya. It is Kenya’s most successful conservancy, with a thriving population of black and white rhinos.
The Conservancy received a founding population of 21 Black Rhino in 2013. After they had settled and established their territories, the fence between Borana and the neighboring Lewa Wildlife Conservancy was removed, resulting in a single continuous landscape.
This ecosystem, known as the Lewa-Borana Landscape, provides wildlife with free rein over 90,000 acres of pristine African wilderness. This environment, along with Lewa, is home to a thriving community of over 200 rhino (both black and white), making it one of East Africa’s largest continuous rhino habitats.

Best time to visit:

The Borana Conservancy is best visited between July and September, when the weather is usually dry and sunny. Wildlife viewing is much easier because animals congregate near water sources and vegetation is thinner, allowing for better visibility. Between December and February, when the reserve is less crowded and migratory birds can be seen, is a good time to visit.

Things to do at the park:

1. Game drives
2. Treetop canopy tours
3. Running on the trail
4. Horseback riding
