Serena Mountain Lodge |
 The
Mount Kenya National Park &
Forest Reserve covers the slopes
of Mount Kenya and the park is
only a two and a half hour's
drive from Nairobi. Apart from
the Big Five, the bird life is
prolific. At the height of 7,200
ft., on the slopes of Mount
Kenya, is Mountain Lodge. The
lodge is ringed by a dense
forest, which comes alive at
dusk with the myriad sounds of
animals. A specially constructed
viewing bunker, connected to the
lodge by a short tunnel, affords
a spectacular close-up view of
the game at the waterhole.

Mount Kenya Safari Club |
Sited
on the lush lower slopes of
Mount Kenya at Nanyuki, the
Mount Kenya Safari Club offers a
unique blend of comfort,
relaxation and adventure. S et in
manicured lawns, ornamental
ponds, flowerbeds, this famous
retreat exudes quiet elegance
against a dramatic backdrop.
Wildlife within the forests
below the park boundary includes
elephant, buffalo, lion, several
species of antelope including
the rare bongo and occasionally
the melanistic forms of both the
leopard and the serval. Much of
this wildlife can be seen from
the safety of the Mountain
Lodge, which lies just inside
the forest on the south side of
the mountain. Mountain climbers
should appreciate the need for
acclimatisation over several
days before attempting the high
peaks. Naro Moru River Lodge
specialises in assisting
climbers with guides, porters
and equipment.

The Ark |
Resembling
and named after Noah's Ark, The
Ark comprises three decks from
which numerous balconies and
lounges provide superb vantage
points for game viewing. A
 ground level bunker provides
excellent photographic
opportunities and takes you
closer than you would believe
possible to the animals such as
elephant, rhino, leopard,
bushbuck and occasionally an
elusive bongo or giant forest
hog. The Ark has 60
'cabin-styled' rooms, comprising
5 single, 36 twin, 10 double and
8 triple-bedded cabins (and one
courier cabin which is not en
suite). All rooms have private
bathrooms with shower; all are
comfortably furnished and enjoy
a view of the forest waterhole.
Each cabin is fitted with a
buzzer to announce the arrival
of one of the "Big Five" at the
waterhole. Dinner and breakfast
are served "on board" in the
main dining room. Located on one
of the viewing decks are a
lounge and a bar, which remains
open all night for tea and
coffee.
