The day begins with an early pickup from Nairobi and a scenic drive along the Great Rift Valley, giving you a chance to enjoy the sweeping views before arriving at Mt. Longonot National Park. Once at the gate, you begin the hike through the rugged volcanic trail, steadily climbing toward the crater rim where breathtaking views of the crater and the Rift Valley reward your effort. After taking in the scenery, you descend and enjoy a short rest before heading to Lake Naivasha for an optional boat ride. On the calm waters, you drift past hippos, spot vibrant birdlife, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with the morning’s challenging hike. With the cool breeze and quiet surroundings adding to the experience, you end the day with a relaxing lakeside lunch before driving back to Nairobi, feeling refreshed and fulfilled after a full day in nature.
