Kahunira

Unarguably Drifter’s favorite trail, tucked in Githunguri, Kahunira is everything beautiful. From the scenery, jumping into pools, and the relaxing sensation of just sitting and letting the water massage you. This trail ends with a height fear test of walking on pipes 100m above the ground.

Highlights  

• 4 Waterfalls
• Forest trails
• High pipes crossing
• Duff mpararo (swimming)
