  Mount Kenya National Park - Panoramic Views of Coffee Farms and Tea Farms and Explore

  After breakfast drive to Mount Kenya National Park. Along the way, we shall have panoramic views of coffee farms and tea farms before arriving at the lodge around mid-day and in time for lunch. Located within Mount Kenya National Park, approximately 120 miles and a two-and-a-half-hour drive from Nairobi.
  
  Mt Kenya National Park Description: At 5,199 meters high (17,057 ft.), Mount Kenya is Kenya’s highest mountain, a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, a magnet for climbers, and one of the world’s highest National Parks. To the Kikuyu people who inhabit the land around the mountain, it was believed that this was the home of their Supreme Being – Ngai. The mountain, visible from vast areas of Kenya’s central heartland, is often clear in the mornings, but secludes itself in the afternoons; drawing warm air up from the plains to create huge, expressive clouds that Hemingway said: “looked like you could have scooped them up with a spoon.”
  
  This “majestic and tender” mountain, in Hemingway’s words, becomes a talismanic presence for our guests on many of our safaris; gazing at it we’re often reminded of Africa’s ability to — as the great Elspeth Huxley wrote—fully sense “a whole world revolving in balance with itself, more perfect than the finest symphony.” Lunch at the hotel and enjoy your afternoon and evening watching wildlife from the hotel terrace as they come to drink water at the waterhole.
