Heath and Moorland: As you gain elevation, the rainforest gives way to open heath and moorland landscapes.

Alpine Desert: Higher sections become drier and more rugged as you approach the upper mountain.

Summit Zone: The final ascent leads toward Uhuru Peak at 5,895 metres, the highest point in Africa.
