In humans, the kidneys are located in the posterior part of the abdomen. There is one on each side of the spine; the right kidney sits just below the liver, the left below the diaphragm and adjacent to the spleen. Above each kidney is an adrenal gland (also called the suprarenal gland).

The kidney's are located on each side of the vertebral column, high up on the posterior wall of the abdominal cavity, between the muscles of the back and the parietal peritoneum that covers the abdominal organs.

Biologically speaking - they're retroperitoneal. Meaning, they lie outside the body cavity. Where on your body? Lower middle back. About a hand's width above your hips.
