Imagine camping in the wild, watching the sunset over the Mau Escarpment, sitting by your fire under the stars, this is the way camping should be. Our camping site is perfectly located in the middle of the Oserengoni Wildlife Sanctuary. A beautiful 10 acre plot surrounded by a hidden electric fence making you feel part with nature but at a safe distance. The campsite has water onsite and a toilet, small luxuries so there is no need to go off and find a "bush toilet". The area is perfect for kids to roam around and ride their bikes around the site, little paths have been created for you to enjoy the indigenous trees, flowers and plants. The property does have the occasional wild visitor such as genet cats, warthogs, dikdiks and the occasional vervet monkey, making you feel even more in the wild. There is also some complimentary wood waiting for you and more to purchase at the gate. In addition there is the Oserengoni Charcoal which is sustainable made in parts of the sanctuary from the leleshwa trees which dominate the surroundings. This Charcoal is made from part of a leleshwa and the rest of the tree then regenerates, making this a perfect way to harvest much needed charcoal.

Naivasha is known for having an amazing climate, day temperatures can reach 28 - 30 degrees Celsius, but at night can drop to a very fresh 6 degrees celcious.
