Samburu National Park

Samburu & Archers Post – hotel tips

As you travel from the lush and fertile grounds of Mount Meru, the transition into Samburu unfolds with an entirely different landscape and ambiance. Dry and semi-desert ecosystems, palm groves and the Ewaso Nyiro River paint the breathtaking canvas of Samburu National Reserve. This area is the ancestral home of the Samburu people, a traditional community resiliently thriving in challenging conditions. Beyond exciting game drives, exploring Samburu also offers diverse landscapes and rich cultural experiences.

While most people just call it ‘Samburu’, the area in the lesser-known north of Laikipia actually consists of three National Reserves: Samburu, Buffalo Springs and Shaba. .
