“With the conservation to the natural environment, efforts are being made to be better year after year,” she said.
During the rainy season, visitors can stay in the house built by Eucalyptus trunks instead of a tent for K10,000 per person. In the tourist season, cold season, a tent for two persons is K25,000, K45,000 for four persons and K50,000 for six persons. The service includes a hot/cold water showers, and the prices are the same in the summer and rainy seasons.
