Ol Jogi, rhino conservation sits at the core of the conservancy’s long-term purpose. The landscape supports a significant and closely monitored population of black rhino, forming part of Kenya’s wider conservation strategy. This is the result of decades of protection, daily tracking, and coordinated management. While we have a substantial population of white rhino as well, the below is a focus on black rhino:

· Eastern Black Rhino — critically endangered and under constant protection across the conservancy
· Rhino Calves — remaining close to their mothers for several years as they develop and learn their territory
· Rhino Monitoring — conducted daily by ranger teams to ensure health, safety, and movement tracking
· Kenya Rhino Range Expansion — part of a national effort to create additional space for the Eastern Black Rhino as populations grow

Recent conservation efforts have shown strong population recovery, while also highlighting the need for expanded space to support long-term sustainability. At Ol Jogi, as the birthplace of KRRE, rhino conservation is not a single project; it is a continuous, evolving responsibility.

Our rangers are participating in the upcoming TUSK Wildlife Ranger Challenge. We would appreciate your support in raising vital funds for the work they do, and best of all, each donation will be matched. Please see link in bio for more.

At Ol Jogi, the Main House is more than a place to stay; it is the heart of the experience. Designed as an exclusive private home in the center of the conservancy, every space invites guests to come together, celebrate, unwind, and create unforgettable moments between adventures in the bush.
 
• Verandah — the social soul of the house, where long breakfasts, afternoon teas, sunset drinks, and wildlife sightings unfold against spectacular views across the landscape to Mt Kenya.
• Games & Music Room — complete with a pool table, games, Yamaha grand piano, and comfortable spaces to relax, laugh, and spend lighthearted competitive time together.
• Library & Cards Room — home to an extensive Africana collection, perfect for a game of cards, board games, or reading by the fire.
• Living Room — beautifully designed for gathering with family and friends, sharing stories from the day’s sightings beside the fire.
• Bar — expertly crafted cocktails, fine spirits, and relaxed evenings spent celebrating together before dinner.
• Dining Room — where every meal becomes an elegant occasion, showcasing seasonal menus inspired by the conservancy’s farm-to-fork philosophy.
• Media Room — settle in for a family film night, to keep up with your favorite sport, or do a small business presentation; the space is yours to enjoy.
• Wine Cave — an intimate underground cave with antique wine making equipment, candlelight, and various set-ups for tastings and memorable celebrations.
 
Every room has been thoughtfully designed to bring people together, from long lunches and sunset cocktails to family games, celebrations, laughter, and evenings spent sharing stories long after the safari is over.

At Ol Jogi, the big cats of Laikipia represent a visible indicator of ecological balance. Their presence depends on sufficient prey, habitat, and space, making them central to understanding ecosystem health. Each species operates differently, yet all rely on the same underlying system.

• Lion — social predators influencing herd behaviour.
• Leopard — solitary and highly adaptable.
• Cheetah — predominantly solitary with males forming coalitions.

A lion’s mane is more than just an iconic feature; it’s a statement. Far from mere ornamentation, the mane is a condition-dependent signal: an honest indicator of age, health and testosterone levels that rivals and potential mates can read at a glance. A darker, fuller mane typically belongs to a stronger, more experienced male, and in the world of lions, being recognised as formidable can be enough to avoid a fight before one begins.

Every scar tells a story, and every mane reflects a lifetime spent defending territory, protecting a pride and competing for the chance to pass on the next generation.

Today, on World Ranger Day, we honour the dedicated individuals who stand on the front lines of conservation.

Every day, wildlife rangers safeguard endangered species, protect fragile ecosystems, and work tirelessly to ensure that future generations inherit a world where wildlife can continue to thrive.

Their work demands extraordinary resilience, courage, and commitment. Long patrols, challenging terrain, unpredictable wildlife encounters, and the relentless responsibility of defending some of the world’s most threatened species are all part of the job.

This September, Team Ol Jogi will once again take on the Wildlife Ranger Challenge, joining ranger teams from across Africa in a unique endurance event that raises vital funds for those who dedicate their lives to the protection of wildlife.

Every donation equips rangers with the resources they need to succeed—from essential gear and training to well-being support for the men and women safeguarding our natural heritage. This year, every contribution will be match-funded, so your support will go twice as far.

Today, we celebrate our rangers. In September, we run alongside them.

Meet Your Team: When Francis Akope Ekitela was growing up at Ol Jogi, his teachers recognised something special long before he did. While other children dreamed of becoming doctors or pilots, Francis simply loved to draw. Encouraged by his teachers, supported by his family, and later by Ol Jogi itself, that childhood passion slowly became a career.

After the conservancy helped support his education, Francis worked as a casual labourer before his artistic talent was realized. A chance encounter with an Ol Jogi guest changed his life once again, leading to his sponsorship to attend the Buru Buru Institute of Fine Arts. Today, Francis has returned home as Ol Jogi’s resident artist. His work can be seen throughout the conservancy from murals to sculptures, he enhances the guest experience with art classes, and he also inspires the next generation as the school’s art teacher.

His story is a reminder that when talent is recognised, nurtured, and given opportunity, it has the power to transform lives.

Guests at Ol Jogi have been incredibly fortunate to observe this female cheetah and her four cubs (three are featured in this video) on the conservancy. Estimated to be around two months old, the cubs are becoming increasingly curious, venturing a little farther from their mother while remaining under her watchful eye as they begin to explore the world around them.

Play is an essential part of their development, helping build coordination, strength, confidence, and the early hunting skills they will rely on throughout their lives. When their mother heads out to hunt, she carefully conceals them in dense vegetation, reducing the risk from predators during these vulnerable first months.

Watching the balance between a mother’s unwavering care, the playful interactions between siblings, and the cubs’ growing independence offers a rare glimpse into one of nature’s most remarkable family stories. Every playful leap, cautious step, and shared moment prepares them for the challenges of survival that lie ahead.

Some evenings are planned. The best ones simply unfold. As the sun slips below the Laikipia horizon and stories from the day’s safari begin to flow, the bar becomes one of Ol Jogi’s favourite gathering places. It’s where old friends reconnect, families create new memories, and colleagues casually bond over masterfully crafted cocktails, fine wines and French Champagne.

With warmth, creativity and genuine hospitality, Elijah has a wonderful way of turning every drink into part of the experience. Whether it’s your favourite classic, something inspired by the season, or a mocktail created just for you, each is mixed with the same thoughtful attention that defines every aspect of life at Ol Jogi.

There’s never any rush to leave. One drink becomes two, laughter fills the room, plans are made for tomorrow’s adventures, and before long, you’ve lost all sense of time. It’s these unhurried evenings that so often become the moments guests treasure most.
