Serena Mountain Lodge Let’s Take It To The Woods
On the slopes of Mount Kenya is Serena Mountain Lodge – A rustic tree lodge, sailing like a ship against a canopy of trees where the hidden gem of Mt. Kenya (Kenya’s highest mountain at just 5,199 meters above sea level) lies. It is a short and scenic 2 hours drive from Nairobi, that is also easily accessible by a small car.
The lodge is a great adventurer’s getaway, a perfect location for me time for relaxation, couples and conservationists. What’s more it is also considered a great conferencing venue. The lodge has open air viewing decks that offer sweeping views across the tree canopy, as well as its own watering hole that attracts game such as elephants, buffaloes, bushbucks and many more. All 41 rooms either have large windows or private balconies that provides breathtaking views of the waterhole. Free WIFI is available throughout the lodge. This is also the nature lovers’ haven, where all types of flora and fauna can be found. Experience the sights and sounds of this ecosystem.
