Wonderful View of the Great Rift Valley,8 Km Hike and Bird Watching. A great way to keep fit and improve your fitness level. A good must do thrill.
Pickup from the Hotel at 6:00am and head to Mt. Longonot as the sun is rising from the floor of the Great Rift Valley, like a monolith is the extinct volcano of Mount Longonot.
Arrive at Mt. Longonot at around 7am for 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 all the way to Lake Naivasha.
In Mount Longonot National Park, set out on the 4-mile (6.4-kilometer), round-trip hike to the edge of the crater, with the option to extend the hike an additional 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers), walking all the way around the crater rim.
There after the Hike you get local food at the local resturant then head back to the Hotel. On your way pass be the curio shops for some gifts.

My experience was excellent. Moses, our driver and guide was very knowledgeable and professional. The hike was a bit harder than I expected with some steep hills, but still loved it. Totally recommend doing. 10/10, wouldn’t change anything about the experience. Total time almost 5 hours.

The volcano was amazing. The hike could be a little challenging at parts, but if you’re in okay shape you should be totally fine to complete it. It’s definitely worth checking out if you’re in Kenya. Our guide Moses was super nice and made the experience smooth.

We thoroughly enjoyed our hike to Mount Longonot with our super driver and guide Moses. It wasn’t the best day as there was a lot of cloud but the walk itself was a lot more pleasant as it wasn’t so hot. Parts of the walk were fairly tough but our guide Moses helped us complete no bother. Well worth having a driver and guide than doing it on your own.

Choose your own pace and then trail option once you’ve arrived at the rim.
6 hrs estimated for hikers in excellent shape; be aware of Nairobi’s traffic delays.
