Fishing Camps in Muranga
Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge
Situated at the doorstep of the wildly-spectacular Aberdare Range, close to Ruru Centre, the snugly Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge, complete with health-giving views, was inspired by a dream to create a symbiosis between man and nature. This region holds significant importance both ecologically and culturally, offering breathtaking scenery, rich history, and thriving agricultural communities. Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge is set up on a 10-acre property, within it 5 cabin-style cottages built on a beautifully-appointed side of a hill overlooking the river, sprawling tea farms and hills. Private verandas overlook this reposeful view.
For the fisherman and bird lover, this hidden escape offers both, and by evening a peaceful nest. The halcyon rural bliss, crisp air and alpine setting are memorable. Located to the west of Mount Kenya, the Aberdares are known for their rugged terrain, waterfalls, and dense forests. Moreover, and most magical of all, is the soothing sound of the river as it drifts along, catching the light with a graceful radiant glint which, in pleasant weather, is an enjoyable launch to walk, fish, and swim. A hike in the nearby forest glade offers an intimate encounter with nature. Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge is located at Ruru near Gitereki Tea Center.
Fishing in Kenya is a popular activity, thanks to its abundant freshwater lakes, rivers, and the Indian Ocean coastline. Whether you’re into deep-sea fishing, freshwater angling, or simply exploring local fishing traditions, Kenya offers diverse opportunities for fishing enthusiasts. Be sure to obtain necessary permits and licenses for fishing in national parks, reserves, or specific fishing areas.
