Visitors to Laikipia can enjoy many adventure sports, from Rock climbing, Mountain biking, paragliding and quad safaris. The county is a leader in conservation and preservation of its wild spaces and Mukima Sanctuary proudly plays its own part with profits going back into rewilding the land and protecting the species within its borders.
