Serena Mountain Lodge

Description

Sailing like an ark amid the primeval forests of Kenya’s highest mountain, Mount Kenya, this timbered tree hotel offers clear mountain air, sweeping views across the tree canopies, sparkling trout streams and gentle forest walks.

Raised on stilts above the forest canopy, a timbered drawbridge leads from the forest and up onto the wooden decks of the lodge. Inside, the impression of having boarded a ship is perpetuated by a combination of log panelled walls, timbered game viewing decks and winding stairs leading to a selection of 42 comfortable cabin-style rooms. There are 20 Double Rooms, 19 Twin Rooms and three Triple Rooms. Activities include guided walks through the forest, trout fishing in the clear mountain streams, trips to the high moorlands of the mountain, and five-day luxury climbs up the mountain.
