Itinerary Summary
The plan is to leave Nairobi at 4 am and drive to the Namanga border. After border clearance, we head to the foothills of the mountain & get to the start point with a guide. The hike up the mountain follows narrow footpaths through a dense natural forest. After three hours you will be at the marvelous Dawa ya Supu viewpoint. From this point, we will follow trails created by buffaloes to reach the top in another two hours climb. The views from the top are surreal. The 360 degrees panoramic views of the surrounding plains are to die for!
On clear days you can see the nearby Namanga Hills, Mt Meru, Lengai, and Mt. Kilimanjaro.
We shall then descend to base and check in to Longido mountain lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
