ELSA'S KOPJE MERU NATIONAL PARK ****
Perched on top of Mugwongo Hill is the site of George Adamson's first camp. From one of the eight luxury cottages, guests enjoy a 270 degree view of the surrounding park with its scattered kopjes and mysterious baobab trees. The open plan rooms are individually designed, incorporating the rocks into the structure. Traditional African furniture, bright fabrics and whitewashed walls are all simple yet superbly comfortable and stylishly effective. Game drives and walks are focused entirely on guests requirements, which gives one much flexibility when visiting this spectacular area.
LEOPARD ROCK LODGE ****
Leopard Rock Lodge is an upmarket Safari Lodge built on a 3.5Km river frontage, in the last remaining park devoted to wilderness Meru National Park, along the Equator 310km from Nairobi, North East of Mt Kenya. It is an ecological lodge which respects the environment with the intention to maintain the authenticity of this wild area.
George and Joy Adamson set their camp at the Leopard Rock Lodge which Joy described as an ideal Leopard country when they got the famous baby lioness.
