The 3200m mark upwards forms part of the national park. Surrounding the park is Mt Kenya National Reserve covering an area of approximately 2095 sq kms. This park is unique for its diverse habitats. The lower slopes of the mountain consist mainly of dry upland forest.
True mountain forest starts at 2000m with cedar and podo amongst the main tree species. At 2500m begins the dense belt of bamboo forest. This is the part with a variety of flora and fauna. High altitude heath covers the area between 3000m and 3500m. Above this is moorland, which supports little game save for high altitude zebra and eland. Generally, the mountain can be divided into three principle zones; the rocky peak area, which is basically an eroded volcanic plug with a layer of glaciers and snowfields; the alpine zone, consisting giant vegetation and the lower slopes covered in mountain forest and finally, the bamboo jungle . This magnificent park is an important watershed with the Tana River, Kenya’s largest and longest river and a major source of electricity supply, originating from here. The lower slopes also have fertile soils, which support growth of the country’s richest farmlands, and a unique variety of vegetation.
