About this tour
When you live deep in the rainforest, you become creative with everything nature and Danpaati River Lodge has to offer. The fruit of the kalebas tree not only has medicinal properties, but its shell is also used for various purposes. This hard material can be transformed into cups and bowls, but also into items like small basins for washing hands or little buckets used to scoop water from a canoe.
With the kalebash workshop at Danpaati River Lodge, you will learn how to make a beautiful kalebash souvenir under expert guidance. You will also learn much about the background of this fruit and ultimately be able to apply your own patterns to the shell.
GOOD TO KNOW
Creating a kalebas is a tough and labor-intensive task. For that reason, at Danpaati River Lodge, you can also choose to only decorate your own patterns on a kalebas that has already been cleaned and prepared by someone else. And if you really want to impress back home, you can simply purchase a beautifully crafted kalebas made by a local from the Danpaati area.
