Tumaren Camp, Laikipia, Kenya

A Tented Camp in Kenya

Camp Details

Positioned at the western side of wildlife-rich grassland this elegant tented camp was originally the home of Kerry Glen, James Christian, the owners of Karisia Walking Safaris. The camp overlooks a salt lick that attracts almost all of Laikipia’s large game. Tumaren Camp offers seven spacious sleeping tents thoughtfully equipped with convenient lighting, ensuite bathrooms, and modern flush toilets as well as expansive views of the country below and the visitors to the salt.

Tumaren is a place where you can immerse yourself in a variety of activities, from guided walks to leisurely camel rides and delightful picnics that connect you with Laikipia’s ecology and natural history . Guests can also indulge in top rope rock climbing, visiting the local markets and schools and play ultimate frisbee against our local team of primary school students. Wildlife enthusiasts and photographers can embark on exciting game drives or sit by the waterholes watching the animals coming to water. For those wanting a little more there is a fantastic 20 metre pool facing the plains and often there is wildlife sauntering past.
