As featured in the 1985 movie Out of Africa, Kyulu Hills is a ravishingly beautiful Lava ridge featuring unworldly views, perfect hiking country & the Leviathan lava flow which is one of the world’s longest lava tubes. The Kyulus are considered some of the youngest volcanic mountains in the world & studying it’s biodiversity is like studying the beginning of life.
