Practical Q&A · Taita-Taveta

What are the Taita Hills?

Cool, green hills rising above the Tsavo plains around Wundanyi, with fragmented indigenous cloud forests (Ngangao, Chawia) that are a global biodiversity hotspot — endemic species like the Taita thrush and Taita apalis. It's the Taita people's homeland, with hikes, viewpoints, caves and cultural sites.
