Kiborgoch Wetland and Wildlife Conservancy
Discover Kiborgoch
Tucked in Baringo’s vast landscapes lies Kiborgoch Community Wildlife and Wetland Conservancy, a haven of biodiversity and cultural heritage. At its heart is a wetland that has sustained the community for generations, providing fodder, water, and income through sustainable papyrus reed harvesting by the Chelaba women's group. More than just a scenic wetland, Kiborgoch offers visitors an immersive experience. Tourists can explore its vibrant landscapes, spot diverse wildlife, and witness the cultural traditions of the Endorois people. The conservancy's governance, led by dedicated rangers and community members, showcases a successful model of conservation driven by local wisdom and stewardship. Nature lovers can encounter over 300 bird species, including flamingos and the superb starling, as well as the "small five," zebras, ostriches, and endangered reedbucks.
