Mt Elgon National Park, Kenya

Displayed:   times.

Mt. Elgon National Park is located on the Kenyan-Ugandan border. Mt Elgon is an extinct volcano. Its highest peak is Wagagai (4321 m), but it?s on the Ugandan side. The highest peak on the Kenyan side is Koitoboss. The main attraction of Mt Elgon is its spectacular caves in its slopes. These saline caverns are beautiful by themselves, and there?s a chance you could even see elephants inside them, getting their daily allowance of salt. The three caves open to tourists are called Kitum, Chepnyali, and Mackingeny. More info on: www.world66.com
