Meru National Park

“Murera Springs Eco Lodge is a great place to stay when going on safari in Meru National Park in Kenya.

The 15 cottages are made of recycled Tetrapak cartons. The lighting at the lodge is from solar energy.You'll be served tasty and varied meals. Between safari tours and meals you can relax by the nice pool area.

After a day full of impressions in the African savanna it's nice to sit down by the bonfire and talk to the other at the lodge about the day.”

Solar Panels provide energy at the lodge.

All food is grown locally on the “shamba”. Fresh fruit, vegetables, beans are used to cook the meals.

Open vehicles can be hired to go on safari…..

….but the roads are very dry and dusty.

Many different creatures can be seen on safari.

On a recent visit to Murera Springs Eco Lodge a Scottish tourist described how she felt: “Murera Springs Eco Lodge just outside Meru National Park is a real find. Constructed on sustainable principles it offers and oasis of peace in a natural forest complete with a swimming pool! Solar energy provides all the power. The elevated 'tents' are spacious, comfortable and en suite. The wrap around windows are mosquito protected and you feel as if you are at one with the animals, birds and plants round about. While 2 Bantu guards protect you with bows and arrows during the night, you fall asleep to the sounds of monkeys and bush babies crying, along with the cicadas song and the odd trumpeting from an elephant. Meals of local produce are served in a variety of clearings, followed by a siesta in a hammock. Bliss.”
