Overview
Perched high above a waterhole in the heart of Aberdare National Park, Treetops Lodge offers one of Kenya’s most iconic and nostalgic safari experiences. Known for its unique treehouse-style design and its place in royal history—where Queen Elizabeth II ascended to the throne while staying here—Treetops is both a wildlife haven and a living piece of heritage.
The lodge is built on stilts, allowing guests to observe elephants, buffalo, leopards, and even the elusive bongo antelope from the comfort of panoramic decks and cozy lounges. With floor-to-ceiling viewing windows, Treetops lets nature come to you—day and night—as animals gather at the waterhole just below.
Accommodations are warm and rustic, designed to immerse you in the surrounding forest without sacrificing comfort. The lodge also offers guided game drives in the Aberdares, known for its misty mountain scenery, dramatic waterfalls, and dense forest teeming with wildlife.
Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, a history buff, or simply looking for a magical stop on your safari route, Treetops Lodge offers a once-in-a-lifetime stay suspended in the heart of the wild.
