Samburu refers to both a semi-nomadic Nilotic people in north-central Kenya, known for their vibrant beadwork, distinctive red attire, and pastoral lifestyle centered around livestock, and the expansive Samburu County and Samburu National Reserve, famous for unique wildlife and dramatic landscapes in the same region.
