Walking safari

Are you searching for a safari away from vehicles and their window views? Experience the subtle sounds of the African bush on foot where you smell the fresh aroma of the morning grass on the plains or wander through a mountain valley and beautiful sceneries. Our local tribal guides with intimate knowledge of their surrounding accompany us to ensure we miss nothing. We visit colourful areas of the Maasai villages and get a chance to observe their traditional ways of life.
Walking is in a comfortable pace with binoculars and camera close to hand. Our vehicle or pack animals (Donkeys) forge ahead to set up camp and arrange meal stops. Here we pitch tents or fly camp! After a few days walking we proceed for game drives at Maasai Mara national park for gamedrives since walking is not allowed here. Your comfort and security are basic concerns that are primary to the itinerary.

Walking safaris directly benefit local people who provide guides and pack animals as well as having a minimal impact on the natural environment.
Please find some of our walking safari itineraries that include walk and drive sectors. We would be happy to tailor make /design your safari to meet your budget /requirements.

We require 2 pax to guarantee a departure.

4 DAYS ABERDARE FOOT WALK

This trek through the Aberdare Mountains is a fascinating walk amongst the exotic flora and fauna found above 2500metres.Views of the Rift Valley are breath taking and the experience is made more memorable by camping above the surrounding forests, occasional encounters with big game such as elephant and buffalo, great bush buck and other antelopes.

The Aberdares (Nyandarua) overlooks the Great Rift Valley and lies on its eastern edge. There are two main peaks, Lesatima to the north and Kinangop to the south. Various species of wildlife inhabit these mountain ranges, hiding in the heavily forested slopes and in the upper moorlands. Walking is always cool with plenty of clear mountain streams. Our walk starts below the bamboo forest, climbing up onto the moorlands. There is always danger walking through the African bush but we do not expect many close encounters with large game. However, our trained and armed gameranger knows the area and the habits of the game.

Day 1 - Mweiga

Departing our office in the morning., we go north to Mweiga to meet our guide and then up into the forested eastern slopes of the Aberdares ranges where we make camp.

Day 2 & 3 - Walking

We start our walk. Carry only what you need for the day's walk, the vehicle will meet us in the moorlands where camp will be made. A short gamedrive if weather permits.

Day 4 - Nairobi

We depart the moorland camp (10,000ft) and descend by vehicle looking for game on the way. We drop off the guide and head back to Nairobi arriving before late afternoon.
