Wild Africa

Mountains

Season 1, Episode 1 of 6

The building of mountains was the next great event to shape the continent of Africa. In this film we travel in time from the spectacular Ethiopian highlands to the giants of the Great Rift Valley - the Aberdares, Mts Kenya, Meru and Elgon - taking the viewer to the top of the greatest of them all, Kilimanjaro. On our journey, we visit Africa's oldest peaks, the 80 million year old Atlas mountains in Morocco and the very newest - the Virungas - which still spout fire.
