LOCATION :

Nestled in an ancient cedar forest with sweeping views over the Great Rift Valley, Malu offers a magical encounter with wildest Africa - just one-and-a-half hours from Nairobi.

On Malu 1,700-acre estate, you'll have the freedom to walk & ride through one of East Africa's original highland forests, where zebra, buffalo and leopard roam.

Shady glades along the Malewa River provide bountiful fishing, while our horses & mountain bikes provide a unique close encounter with this untouched wilderness.

Malu is 1.5hrs' drive north of Nairobi, and is a perfect base for exploring the Naivashu environs - Hell's Gate, Longonot, Crescent Island, Elmentaita and Lake Naivasha itself.

Malu is also ideal for those heading to Nakuru, Baringo, Bogoria, the Aberdares and Masai Mara.
