About

The Chyulu Hills is a mountain range in Makueni County in southeastern Kenya. It forms a 100 km (62 mi)-long volcanic field in an elongated northwest–southeast direction. Its highest peak is 2,188 m (7,178 ft) high.

The Leviathan Cave (also known as Kisula caves) in Chyulu Hills National Park is about 11 km (6.8 mi) long, one of the longest caves in Africa. The national park is part of the Tsavo conservation area which covers Tsavo West National Park, Tsavo East National Park and the Kibwezi Forest.

The park's main gate is in Kibwezi in Makueni County.

The Chyulu Hills stood in for the Ngong Hills in the film Out of Africa.
