Kakamega Forest is Kenya's only surviving tropical rainforest. It is an ancient remnant of the jungle that once stretched across Central Africa. Revered as a sacred realm by the indigenous Luhya people, the dense woods harbor rare wildlife alongside rich folklore.

Oloolua Forest is an urban tropical forest located in the Karen suburb of Nairobi.
