4 Days Mt Kenya Climbing Safari

4 Days Mt Kenya Climbing Safari

The main attraction and landmark of this park is Kenya's highest mountain, Mt Kenya which, sits astride the Equator its icy summit reaching a height of 5199m (17,058 ft). For the sporty tourist it is the best are for mountaineering. Many rivers spring from the perpetual snow caps, among them the mighty River Tana which, is Kenya's largest and longest river and source of much of the country's electric supply.

 

Elephant, Buffalo, Lion, several species of Antelope including the rare Bongo are some of the wildlife that can be spotted here. It hosts some of the most spectacular golf courses in the world in terms of scenery where you might be joined by an ostrich running across the fairway whilst doing your crucial back swing.


Another of natures wonders is the Equator also found in this part of the country. Water drains clockwise on one side and anticlockwise 20 meters away from the equator while on the equator it does not rotate at all. Amazing.
