Sumatra Elephant Eco Lodge: Bandar Lampung, Sumatra

There are numerous eco lodges to be found in the archipelago and these alternative forms of accommodation are ideal for those who are environmentally conscious and are lovers of nature. In general, these eco lodges are located near national parks or close to places that are involved with the rehabilitation of the flora and fauna of Indonesia. One of these lodges can be found only 500 metres from the Way Kambas National Park. Getting to the lodge only takes a couple of hours from Lampung and it is ideal for nature lovers.
