The Chyulu Hills offer the quintessential African landscape experience and more. Tucked between the famous Amboseli and Tsavo ecosystem, with splendid views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the verdant Chyulu Hills, are a string of dormant and extinct volcanoes that have given rise to lush green hills, lava flows and craters.
The Chyulu Hills were the inspiration for Ernest Hemingway’s book ‘Green Hills of Africa’.
Chyulu Hills National Park boasts some of the deepest known lava tube caves in the world, a feature that has placed the park on the world map, attracting visitors from all over the world. The numerous lava tube caves, collectively known by the local community as Kisula Caves, criss cross the depths of Chyulu Hills. The Upper Leviathan Cave has been extensively explored and at 11.5km long, and has been established as one of the longest caves in the world.
