Laikipia, Kenya | 7-11 December 2018
An adventure in an ancient landscape, to guard elephants from modern threats
WHAT?
This is a landscape of elephants and of nomads. For millennia, Kenya’s northern tribes and elephants crossed these vast wildernesses. Now, you have the opportunity to walk those same faint paths.
As a team, trek one of Africa’s great elephant corridors guided by warriors, rangers,
and conservationists. Slow down, disconnect, and share new experiences in ancient landscapes. Eat by campfires beneath endless starry skies.
Sleep deeply under canvas, lulled by the sounds of timeless nature.
And do all this for a purpose: to help protect forever the very landscape you are walking, and the elephants who walk it too.
WHY?
This adventure is a unique opportunity to do something different whilst making a measurable contribution to ensuring elephants are protected everywhere in Africa that Space for Giants works.
Including the 7,000 elephants that roam the landscape you will be walking across.
Space for Giants works to secure a future for elephants and their landscapes, forever.
We protect elephants with robust frontline units, strong court prosecutions, and by helping increasing human populations to coexist with wildlife. We also demonstrate the value that conservation can bring, to people, governments, and ecosystems.
