Live Among the Trees at Sarara Treehouses

Sarara Treehouses is an extraordinary forest hideaway, tucked into the cool canopy of Kenya’s Mathews Range. Surrounded by ancient cycads and colossal fig trees, this collection of elevated treehouses provides a unique vantage point over one of Africa’s last remaining indigenous cloud forests. Here, the safari experience feels truly elemental, with the landscape, the people, and the wildlife forming an inseparable bond.

Designed to blend with the forest, each treehouse is built using sustainably sourced materials and offers open-plan living, warm showers, and comfortable beds under billowing mosquito nets. The air is filled with birdsong, the rustle of leaves, and the distant calls of monkeys. Guests wake to misty mornings, enjoy al fresco breakfasts, and fall asleep to the gentle hush of the forest.

What sets Sarara Treehouses apart is its deep connection with the local Samburu community. Guided by local hosts, guests are invited to explore the forest on foot, discover medicinal plants, listen to stories passed through generations, and visit local villages to gain insight into a way of life intricately tied to this land. Wildlife is spotted on foot, from shy forest elephants to elusive leopards, and rare species endemic to the region.

Sarara’s commitment to conservation and cultural preservation is at its heart, with profits supporting community projects, education, and the nearby Reteti Elephant Sanctuary. For those seeking meaningful travel in wild, untamed beauty, Sarara Treehouses offers an unforgettable blend of adventure, soul, and sustainability.
