The Central Kenya Circuit

The Central Kenya Tourism Circuit is a hub of mountain adventure, wildlife, and cultural heritage, encompassing counties such as Nyeri, Kirinyaga, Murang’a, Kiambu, Embu, and Nyandarua. Dominated by the majestic Mount Kenya, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the region offers experiences like mountain climbing, forest trekking, and wildlife viewing in parks such as Aberdare National Park and Mount Kenya National Park. It is also rich in agro-tourism, with coffee and tea estates offering immersive farm tours, alongside historical sites linked to Kenya’s colonial and independence history.
