Free – KSh1,000
githiga

This is an easy-moderate trail depending on your fitness level. You’ll enjoy the stunning scenery as you walk through tea farms and forests, as well as 3 waterfalls. Be prepared for steep slopes and uneven terrain, so make sure to wear sturdy hiking boots to ensure a safe and comfortable hike. During the rainy season, the trail can get slippery and muddy, but this only adds to the adventure and fun if you prepare well. Don’t forget to carry snacks, lots of water, a hat, warm clothing, and a lively spirit.
