Mount Kenya is the country 's highest mountain. Sitting astride the equator its icy summit rises to a height of 5,199 m. The entire mountain above the 3.200m contour forms a national park. The mountain consists of three principal zones; the rocky peak area, with its cloak of glaciers and snowfields, the alpine zone with distinctive giant vegetation and the vast gentle slopes drenched in mountain forest and bamboo jungle. Due to its unique vegetation UNESCO has declared Mount Kenya a biosphere reserve.
