One of the smaller camps in the Mara, Offbeat Mara Camp has just seven tents offering a truly private, traditional safari experience within the Mara North Conservancy (MNC). The MNC founded in January 2009, is an area of about 74,000 acres and is incredibly rich in wildlife and has one of the lowest densities of tourist visitors in the greater Mara ecosystem, enabling guests to enjoy game viewing in privacy. Offbeat Mara Camp is one of the founding members of the Conservancy. Tucked away in this prime wildlife area, Offbeat Mara Camp provides guests with superb game viewing - lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo are all seen regularly in the stunning valley that surrounds the camp. Most importantly, the camp is far away from other lodges and camps. We aim to provide guests with great game viewing 'away from the masses'.

The place you return to again and again“. This is what Kipalo means in the language of the Taitas, the tribe living in the region. No wonder – the view from the slopes of the Mbulia Hills over the vast plains of Tsavo West and the Ngulia Hills to the majestic Mt. Kilimanjaro is simply breathtaking. If you are looking for seclusion, privacy and unforgettable encounters with Kenya‘s unique wildlife, then Kipalo Hills is the place for you. The camp, which nestles perfectly against the rocky hillside, was established in Mbulia Conservancy which borders Tsavo West National Park, and which covers almost 36,000 acres.
A waterhole right next to the camp attracts elephants, buffalos and occasionally even leopards and the very rare wild dogs. The swimming pool provides refreshment between activities, and the surrounding rocks form an atmospheric backdrop for your sundowner. The safari tents, luxury suite and private villa, which blend beautifully into the grounds and unspoilt nature surrounding the main open mess, also offer unparalleled views of the spectacular scenery and impenetrable wilderness across the Mbulia Conservancy plains.
The area offers access to Tsavo East and excursions to the Taita and Chyulu Hills.
