Wildlife Conservancies in Baringo

Morop-Tarambas Community Conservancy

Any skeptic in needs of affirmation that Kenya’s forests are being regenerated, or, any nature-lover in need of inspiration, ought to visit the 265 km2 Morop-Tarambas Conservancy where more than 100,000 trees have been replanted in the last two years. Officially founded in 2010 and encompassing 3,500 homes in the Morop, Tambrass and Kipkolel Forests of Tugen Hills, it is a working model of people harmoniously co-existing with nature. The main driving force of this reform initiative was to restore, regenerate, preserve and perpetuate the zestful forests of Tugen Hills; the most indispensable highland within Baringo County.

Currently, there are over 20 active tree nurseries assigned to the four different quarters of the Morop-Tarambas Community Conservancy – Riwo Zone, Sessia Zone, Kasore Zone, and Kapkomoi Zone. What’s more, this is an all-permeating community project. And, one and all – from mothers, children, political leaders and youth – cheerfully take part in the tree planting venture. The local schools have also started outreach programs and tree-planting days. Some of the places not to be missed on a trip here include its tree nurseries, its bamboo project, the fine Kasore Valley, Morop Hill, Kikojo Falls and Kimng’ochoch Royal Campsite.
