Treetops, Aberdares National Park

Nestled in the Aberdares Forest, this rustic treehouse is famous as the place where Princess Elizabeth ascended to the British Throne in 1952.

Strategically sited on an ancient elephant migration route and facing a watering hole and salt lick, the lodge is well-placed to view elephants, buffaloes, rhinos and more.

Accommodation

Treetops comprises 36 rooms and three suites, all with en suite bathroom and deceptively simple, tidy, cosy and modular, much like ships’ cabins, to allow for their amazing treetop situation. Uniquely, the trees grow right through the buildings.

Other details

Children under 5 not permitted.
