Mazeras Town Guide
Mazeras Town is a town in Kilifi County, Kenya with an estimated population of about 6886 people. Mazeras is known for its sandstone, part of the Duruma series – an extremity of the topology forming the Shimba Hills National Reserve. Known in Swahili as Maji-Ya Chumvi (literally “saltwater” – due to the settlement’s proximity to the Indian Ocean) the sandstone is from the Late Triassic period and its heat resisting properties mean it is suitable for a wide range of building purposes.

Mazeras is on the Uganda Railway’s main line between Mombasa and Nairobi. South of the settlement is the Mazeras Spiral, one of the original four railway spirals built on the railway to navigate steep inclines. The spiral is approximately 350 meters (1,150 ft) in diameter.
