Elewana Elsa's Kopje

Located inside Meru National Park, the lodge has been carved amidst the rocks of Mughwango Hill. Having won an award for the ‘Best Safari Property in Africa’, this boutique lodge is known for its elegance and environment friendly practices. Elsa’s Kopje is known to have single handedly rescued the park from being converted into paddy fields as it received very little attention from tourists earlier. A vast area of 215,000 acres, it is now visited for its vast diversity (as compared to any other parks in East Africa) of wildlife species. Other than the spacious guest rooms, there is a restaurant overlooking an outdoor swimming pool which looks more enchanting with the night lamps on. The main area takes you through a small wooden pathway and onto the various rooms inside the lodge. It will interest you to know that Elsa’s is the location where Joy Adamson raised and released orphaned lions and lionesses such as Elsa and wrote the book ‘Born Free’, way before the idea of conservation was idealized.
