Hidden away amongst the coastal forest, Colobus Cottage is an office, research base, information centre, primate rescue facility and home for Colobus Conservation volunteers since August 1997. It is also home to a habituated troop of colobus monkeys, which reside almost entirely within the boundary of our plot, making it an ideal site for ecological and behavioural studies or to just come and watch. Other primates you will likely see are the vervets, sykes and baboons as they pass through on their daily search for food.

Come for a Guided Primate Eco-Tour, the only one in the country! We will take you on a guided walk along the nature trail for a personal introduction to a wild colobus troop and our other wild monkeys - vervets, sykes and baboons - depending on who is about. This is followed by a talk in the information centre where a series of posters help further to visualise our ongoing conservation activities. As an active conservation centre visitors are likely to see volunteers and staff at work, building bridges, caring for injured monkeys or doing research
