The 2-day Mountain Lodge safari from Nairobi is a short overnight wildlife safari to Mt Kenya National Park located about 193 kilometers from Nairobi. Transfers by road from Nairobi take approximately 3 hours. Enjoy high altitude game-viewing safari at a luxury tree lodge called Serena Mountain Lodge.
The lodge is located on the slopes of Mt Kenya at a height of 7,200 feet. Mountain Lodge has an open-air viewing deck that looks down on its own water hole and salt lick, which attracts numerous herds of elephants and buffalo.
There is also a tunnel leading to a photo-hide, which offers spectacular viewing and photographic opportunities just meters away from the wildlife at the water hole. Serena Mountain Lodge’s timber-built, the cabin-style room has its own luxury en suite bathroom and a private balcony overlooking the water hole.
The décor, which echoes the Kikuyu culture, features hand-woven wall hangings, soft lighting, and cozily-warm soft furnishings. Hot-water bottles are provided at night. Smoking is not permitted within the lodge, due to the fact that it is of timber construction but a smoker’s area is provided on the rooftop terrace.
