Living in Harmony with Nature at Tree Top Farm

Thumbnail description:
Host Aku Esufali is the Chief Coordinator at an eco lodge located in the dry-zone jungle of the Weliara, 3 km from the wildlife-rich northern border of Yala National Park. The lodge has clay huts, tree huts and a campsite, and activities included trekking, rock climbing, elephant spotting and birding. Aku writes that "Our aim is to develop a radical eco-lodge combined with agriculture and community participation to help conserve our environment. He considers the program still to be in its early stage, and his main hope is that his local ecotourism efforts can lead to the conservation of elephant habitat. | visitor feedback
