Serena Mountain Lodge

Serena Mountain Lodge is the only ‘tree hotel’ ever to be built on the slopes of Mount Kenya and Floats 2,195 m high on the flanks of the mountain and secreted deep within her largest forest reserve. The lodge offers not only the champagne-clarity of mountain air, the tranquility of the forest and a colourful cavalcade of wildlife but also the chance of scaling the icy peaks of Africa’s second-highest mountain.

All the rooms face the waterhole where you can just sit back and watch whatever is happening
around the waterhole inside your own room.There is also a tunnel that goes underground to see the animals around the waterhole in a more up close and personal. Serena Mountain Lodge is surrounded by a dense rainforest that comes alive at dusk with myriad of sounds that make the African bush so special and exhilarating; and this is just a sample of what to expect on a safari to Kenya.

For those who love to be surrounded by nature, this lodge will be your best bet as it's situated deeply in the forested area. Do not be afraid of the cold weather as a hot water bottle is placed underneath the bedcover to warm up your bed every night.

Just three and a half hours by car from Nairobi, this stunning area is towered over by the rocky peaks of Mountain Kenya and prides itself in having one of the most consistent high records of big game 'visits' and sightings.
