Serena Mountain Lodge

The lodge, a four story box like structure was built in 1970. It overlooks a rural water hole and salt lick surrounded by dense forest. Mountain Lodge allows the visitor an up close and personal view of the dense forest which comes alive at dusk with the sounds of animals. On a clear day you can see the jagged peaks of Mt. Kenya. The lodge is rustic and natural and is the only œtree lodgewith direct access¦no offset hotel acts as an assembly area. Bird watching is especially popular and the naturalist conducts daily safari walks through the forest nearby. In this other worldly setting, the drama of nature plays out daily, beneath the rocky, glacier-covered peaks of nearby Mount Kenya. A specially constructed viewing bunker is connected to the lodge by a short tunnel and allows an incredibly close view of game as they come to drink or partake of the salty silt.
