Mountain Lodge Experience
The
only 'tree hotel' ever to be built on the slopes of Kenya's legendary
snowcapped Mount Kenya, ringed by a dense rain forest that comes alive
at dusk with the myriad sounds of creatures all sizes.Mountain Lodge offers
a matchless game viewing opportunity whilst combining a glorious panorama
of mountain vistas with the primordial splendours of an ancient rainforest.
Floating 2,195 m high on the flanks of Kenya's highest 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.
Mountain Lodge rightfully boasts of having the highest record of animal
visits and sightings in the area.
Guests can
also awake to the trumpeting of elephant, fall asleep to the symphony
of the African night or sit in stillness and observe the fascinating interplay
of the animals as they arrive to drink, bathe, spar and forage around
the water hole. Finally, they can venture down to the secret viewing hide
by the water's edge and experience the awesome thrill of being only meters
away from some of the most massive beasts on earth.
All rooms are ensuite with spacious verandahs, and the main areas of the
Lodge overlook an illuminated waterhole.
Game
viewing throughout the evening and night includes elephant, buffalo, rhino,
giant forest hog, water buck, and maybe leopard and lion. A specially
constructed bunker affords close-up views of the game at the waterhole
and is connected to the lodge by a short tunnel. Guided nature walks through
the forest enable you to experience nature close up, and offers a brief
on historical aspects of Mount Kenya and the area. The majestic rocky
peaks of Mount Kenya constantly tower over the scene.
