The Laikipia ecosystem spans 02 million acres of unblemished
wilderness in the North of Kenya. It has icy mountains, arid
land, savannah and forest. Through its varied environment
roams an incredible diverse array of wildlife, which visitors
can see in countless ways… on foot, horse, camel or
bicycle; by land rover, plane, and helicopter or even via
hanging below the silk wing of a paraglider.
The Laikipia plateau stretches from Mt. Kenya in the east
to the Great Rift Valley in the west; it is home to unique
plant life and specialized northern game like; the Gerenuk,
Gravy’s Zebra and the reticulated Giraffe. Visitors
enjoy total liberty in Laikipia: free from the sometimes inhibiting
game park rules. The area is almost entirely privately owned,
which allows guests the rare privilege of watching game at
night, walking or riding horses in the bush: experience life
in the wilderness with very little changes since time immemorial.
I want to introduce the exclusive
Mukutan Retreat to you as an ideal and unique retreat in the
Laikipia Ecosystem.
This property is a five star untamed bush but also a working
cattle farm; it conducts important wildlife research and works
closely with the communities who have defended this land for
generations. Guests get to see Africa the way it was before
fences were invented. Mukutan retreat is unique and exotic;
it can only be accessed via charter flight. Constructed from
stone, local timber and thatch, the lodge is perched high
on the edge of the plateau looking south towards Mt. Kenya.
Each room of the lodge has large French windows that open
onto the private deck planked off the escarpment. The views
are legendary, and a waterhole a few hundred feet below draws
continuous wildlife. All the furniture at the Lodge is hand
made and the lodge has a swimming pool and a romantic open
air bubble bath.
While all the Traffic is heading to the Maasai
Mara or other common parks and reserves, why not take a tour
to this exclusive retreat and have a different story to tell
when you return back home. Or treat your significant other
with a trip to Mukutan; this is truly out of the ordinary
for those who are looking to surprise the bride, close friend
or fiancée.
