    Hell's Gate is just a quick drive from Nairobi. Go to the bottom of the Rift Valley, don't forget to stop at the church, built by Italian prisoners of war. Turn left on the road with all the Naivasha hotels, until you reach the gate for Hell's Gate. Rent a bicycle here. There are two trails to pick from. One is 8km. The other is 18km. Well worth a visit. The gorges are now closed, since the flood a few years ago.

    Great climbs. We brought our own great but there is a climbing guide there with gear that you can hire at the base of the climb. Easy to moderate climbs on an iconic spire.

    Located at a scenic landscape just a few hundred metres from the Hell's Gate National Park entrance which is approximately 20km from Naivasha Town along the Moi South Lake Road, it is popular with beginner rock climbers. Identification documents are required at the Park gate as with all other KWS parks. Have fun!
