About

Nature area home to a dormant volcano with a forest-filled crater & a popular hike around the rim.

The rim hike is Kenya's best cardio with a reward — bring at least 2 liters of water per person and pack out your disposable bottles, they're banned at the gate. The views from the crater are worth the entry fee drama, just know it's steep for non-residents.

Fantastic hike and views. The entry to the National Park is ridiculously high however at $50 USD each! Just to walk around. The white tax will ruin Kenya's tourism industry.
