Mount Kenya

Climb Mount Kenya

The Mountain

Explore Mount Kenya, a stunning National Park and UNESCO World Heritage Site, and home to Africa’s second-highest peak.

Rising dramatically from the central highlands to 17,057 feet, its glacier-clad summits lend their name to the country.

Discover a pristine and otherworldly landscape of Montane forest, bamboo thickets, moorland, high-altitude tarns, and glacier-carved valleys.

See diverse vegetation, including colorful wildflowers, giant groundsels, lobelias, and endemic plants.

The dense forests are home to elephants, buffalo, waterbucks, leopards, bushbucks, and the elusive black-and-white colobus monkey.
