at Lentorre Lodge
Threading through the conservancy is the Southern Ewaso Ngiro river, meandering through the group ranches providing precious water not only to the wildlife, but to the community as well, eventually creating a rich delta, and when there is enough water, feeding Lake Natron.
Not just central in its positioning, but central in its role, the river it truly the life force of the area. Whether you are simply sitting under the trees and reading a book, in the water swimming and cooling off or fishing for catfish there is something special about visiting its dusty banks.

Deep in the heart of the Great Rift Valley, beyond the volcanic lunar landscape surrounding the soda lakes of Magadi and Natron, deep in the heart of the Olkirimatian Conservancy, lies the oasis of Lentorre.
Fed by crystal clear springs running off the South Loita and Nguruman escarpments, Lentorre provides the perfect spot to relax and soak in the wonders of a wild and untouched Africa.
Lentorre is set on a spur running off the Nguruman Escarpment beside a natural spring in the heart of the Olkiramatian Conservancy, a community initiative developed by the local Maasai community to protect their wildlife, traditional lifestyle and their heritage.
Nestled in this natural amphitheatre, Lentorre provides uninhibited views of Mt Shompole, Ol Donyo Gelai and the active volcano Ol Donyo Lengai. The spring behind the lodge provides a constant source of cool fresh water and sustains a grove of venerable tamarind trees where the Olkiramatian warriors traditionally met as they came of age and elephants continue to gather to feed on ripe tamarind.
