Mau-Mau Cave

Mau-Mau Cave is the fourth name on the list of the most beautiful caves in Kenya that Toplist would like to introduce to you. The Mau Mau Cave, located in Mount Kenya National Park, 199 kilometers north of Nairobi, Kenya's capital city, is a historically significant site in Nanyuki. The Mau Mau freedom fighters discovered it in 1953 and used it as a hideout during the British colonial government's war against them. In other words, during the emergency period from 1952 to 1960, before Kenya became an independent country, the epic caves were used as storage and hideout zones for Mau freedom fighters.

The cave is in the same state as when the freedom fighters used it during the struggle for independence. It is about 18 kilometers south of the equator, inside the sprawling Mount Kenya National Park. The caves now have a variety of attractions, including an indigenous forest with Columbus monkeys and diverse birdlife.

Location: Nanyuki, Kenya
