Mobile ticket

Embark on a thrilling hike up Mt. Longonot, a dormant stratovolcano rising majestically from the floor of the Great Rift Valley. This unique adventure allows you to explore rugged volcanic trails leading to the crater's edge, where you'll be rewarded with panoramic views of the lush crater floor, Lake Naivasha, and the sprawling Rift Valley landscapes. Unlike typical hikes, Mt. Longonot's trail circles the entire rim, offering 360-degree vistas and a rare chance to observe wildlife such as zebras, giraffes, and buffaloes along the way. Its close proximity to Nairobi makes it an ideal day trip for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and photographers eager to capture breathtaking scenery.
