Rooted in Community, Surrounded by Nature
Lyangira Eco Resort was born from a desire to create a genuine sanctuary in the highlands of Uru Materuni Village—where travelers from around the world can feel entirely at home while preserving the pristine beauty of Mount Kilimanjaro.
A True Home Away From Home
"Lyangira" represents connection, care, and organic growth. Tucked away in the green hills of Uru Materuni, our bed and breakfast offers an authentic escape from large commercial hotels.
Here, morning light filters through banana palms and coffee trees, birds sing from mountain canopies, and every guest is treated like extended family. Whether you are preparing for a Kilimanjaro climb or unwinding after a Tanzanian safari, Lyangira is your peaceful haven.
