Lewa Wildlife Conservancy is more than just a safari destination; it is a global blueprint for community-led conservation. Spanning 62,000 acres of pristine foothills north of Mount Kenya, Lewa is famous for having one of the highest densities of rhinos in the world. Once a private cattle ranch, it has been transformed into a sanctuary where endangered species thrive alongside vibrant local communities.<\/p>\n[\/info_list_son][info_list_son style=”icon” size=”20″ width=”30″ height=”20″ titleclr=”#890000″ icon=”fas fa-route” iconclr=”#890000″ iconbg=”#f8f8f8″ borderclr=”#f8f8f8″ title=”What to expect” caption_url=””]\n
