The opening of Elewana Lodo Springs is a result of the success of the 56,000-acre Loisaba Conservancy, which was purchased by the Nature Conservancy in 2015. The purchase secured the land to ensure that the Conservancy delivers vital benefits and support for the neighbouring communities, the wildlife, and all Kenyans for the foreseeable future, achieving optimal standards of sustainable conservation. Matthew Brown, Africa director for the Nature Conservancy, added: “The vibrant grasslands of northern Kenya are home to elephant, zebra, giraffe, lions and local livestock herders.
“The Nature Conservancy, Elewana and Loisaba Conservancy have partnered to create Elewana Lodo Springs, the newest and most exciting tourism experience that will generate local jobs and help contribute to critical wildlife and habitat protection.
“Personally, I find it really exciting that every visitor will be contributing to global species conservation and local livelihoods.”
