It lies between latitudes [[5th parallel north|5°N]] and [[5th parallel south|5°S]], and longitudes [[34th meridian east|34°]] and [[42nd meridian east|42°E]]. From the coast on the Indian Ocean, the low plains rise to central highlands. The highlands are bisected by the [[Kenyan Rift Valley|Great Rift Valley]], with a fertile plateau lying to the east.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

[[Mount Kilimanjaro]] ({{convert|5895|m|ft|0|abbr=on|disp=or}}) can be seen from Kenya to the south of the Tanzanian border.
===Climate===
{{unreferenced section|date=December 2016}}
Kenya's climate varies from tropical along the coast to temperate inland to [[arid]] in the north and northeast parts of the country. The area receives a great deal of sunshine every month, and summer clothes are worn throughout the year. It is usually cool at night and early in the morning inland at higher elevations.
The "long rains" season occurs from March/April to May/June. The "short rains" season occurs from October to November/December. The rainfall is sometimes heavy and often falls in the afternoons and evenings. The temperature remains high throughout these months of tropical rain. The hottest period is February and March, leading into the season of the long rains, and the coldest is in July, until mid August.

Kenya has considerable land area devoted to [[wildlife]] habitats, including the [[Masai Mara]], where [[Blue Wildebeest|blue wildebeest]] and other [[bovid]]s participate in a large scale [[Wikt:migration|annual migration]]. More than 1 million wildebeest and 200,000 zebras participate in the migration across the [[Mara River]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://nationalgeographic.org/media/wildebeest-migration/|title=Wildebeest Migration|last=Society|first=National Geographic|date=19 January 2012|website=National Geographic Society|access-date=13 May 2016}}</ref>
The [[Big Five Game|"Big Five"]] game animals of Africa, that is the [[lion]], [[leopard]], [[African buffalo|buffalo]], [[rhinoceros]], and [[African elephant|elephant]], can be found in Kenya and in the Masai Mara in particular. A significant population of other wild animals, reptiles and birds can be found in the [[List of national parks of Kenya|national parks]] and game reserves in the country. The annual animal migration occurs between June and September with millions of animals taking part, attracting valuable foreign tourism. Two million wildebeest migrate a distance of {{convert|2900|km|0|abbr=out}} from the [[Serengeti]] in neighbouring [[Tanzania]] to the Masai Mara<ref>{{cite web|title=Masai Mara|url=http://www.kenyatraveltips.com/masai-mara-safari.html}}</ref> in Kenya, in a constant clockwise fashion, searching for food and water supplies. This Serengeti Migration of the wildebeest is a curious spectacle listed among the [[Seven Natural Wonders of Africa]].
