The Aberdares offer striking mountain scenery, a mix of the Alps combined with stretches of dense jungle and amazing waterfalls. An abundance of wildlife including buffalos, elephants, lions, leopard, warthogs as well as black rhinos and the rare bongo antelope inhabit the park.
At 3,000 meters above sea level, the bamboo belt gives way to moorland which are reminiscent of the Scottish highlands and ideal for walking, picnics, camping and trout fishing in the rivers. Mountain ranges and peaks soar above the moorland to around 4000 meters giving way to deep V-shaped valleys with streams and rivers cascading over spectacular waterfalls with the largest ones plunging dramatically more than 300 meters.
