Overview

Only an hours drive from Nairobi, its Mt longonot National park. The hiking trip is ideal for both experienced and inexperienced hikers. If you are looking for a place to enjoy smooth outdoor hiking activity, then Mt Longonot is the place to visit. Mt longonot rises from the floor of the Great Rift Valley like a monolith forming an extinct volcanic mountain. A unique feature is the thick forest that lies within the crater of the mountain. The crater rim also provides great scenic views across the beautiful Rift Valley. Major wildlife attractions at Mount Longonot include buffaloes, elands, lion, leopard, bushbucks, common zebra, giraffe and Grant’s gazelles.
