Lions do not usually climb trees. Trees in Africa are the province of the leopard, who drags its prey up into trees to protect it from lions.
Whether or not lions are able to climb trees depends entirely upon the size of the tree. They sometimes lounge in low (very strong) branches, and can pursue a leopard into a tree, provided (once again) the tree has low, very strong branches. But a leopard can always escape by climbing higher, because it is so much lighter and smaller than a lion.
In addition, lionesses who have had male leopard's cubs (which rarely if ever happens in the wild but has happened in captivity), have shown great frustration when their cubs start climbing trees and they can't go up after them.
