Cultivating childrens'
potential to thrive in
harmony with their
natural environment
Life-Transforming Environmental Education
Our camp program offers vulnerable children a wilderness campout they might otherwise never be privileged enough to experience. Eden's skilled facilitators open a child's eyes to the natural world and the presence of the sacred. Children participate in forest hikes, boat rides, safari walks, and team-building activities. Through discovery learning, childrens' attitudes and behaviors towards their environment are transformed, enabling them to live more sustainably on earth.
Our goal is to honor each child's dignity, cultivating their potential to flourish and live in spiritual, relational, and natural harmony.
"The journey of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in seeing with new eyes."
Marcel Proust
Children are all naturally curious, but are not all equally privileged.
Eden Environmental Camp is offered year-round to vulnerable children and youth who live in childrens' homes, informal settlements and rural villages.
Once at Eden Camp, children breath fresh mountain air, explore the forests of Kenya, ride next to hippos on Lake Naivasha, walk with giraffes on Crescent Island, plant indigenous trees, sleep in tents and sleeping bags for the first time, and interact with role models who have dedicated their lives to the holistic flourishing of land and lives.
We want every child to feel special with the opportunity for individual discovery, so we intentionally keep our camp groups small and intimate.
Eden believes that discovery inspires wonder and ignites growth.
Private Camping at Eden Eco-Camp
Eden Eco-Camp is located in one of the most peaceful corners of wilderness in central Kenya. It occupies 25 acres of pure wilderness, just 10 km from Naivasha town. From the dining and bonfire area you will see and hear the Malewa River flowing by. The lack of light and air pollution offers incredible night skies. Enjoy yourself fishing, swimming, hiking, or bird-watching. Plan with our facilitators for team-building activities or guided hikes in the nearby forest. Pitch your own tent near the river or make use of our safari tents with mattress or cabins with bunk beds. We offer running water, hot showers, a kitchen and dining banda with picnic tables. Firewood and security are provided. Bring your own food, drinking water, cooking gas and camping chairs and you're all set to go! A 4WD vehicle is recommended, especially in rainy season.
