Segera
Eco Lodges
Since October 2014
Over two decades, Segera has transformed its 50,000-acre expanse from degraded cattle ranch to thriving wildlife sanctuary. A testament to the impact of biodiversity restoration, long-term community initiatives, and sustainable conservation efforts, Segera now teems with diverse species and has been reforested with hundreds of thousands of newly planted trees. Segera is a certified Global Ecosphere Retreat®.
As the founding member of The Long Run and Global Ecosphere Retreats® certification, Segera is deeply committed to environmental stewardship and sustainability to preserve the planet. Segera's 4Cs framework - promoting conservation, community, culture, and commerce - remains their guiding principle. This holistic approach is evident throughout the guest experience, with Segera, protecting biodiversity through reforestation, empowering communities with educational facilities, promoting local culture via an on-site art gallery, and contributing to the overall balance of the wider community and its ecosystem through employment opportunities and plastic waste initiatives.
