Ngurunga cia Njangiri

August 1 @ 7:00 am - 3:00 pm

Free – KSh1000

Famously known as Nachu Caves Located on Gatune Hills. The caves are rocky and slippery. Fun fact: they take the shape of the Horn of Africa. Inside these caves are remnants of ash and the names of people scribbled on them. The path to get here shifts from mud, bush, and shrubs to grazing fields as the Ngong hills come into clear view. This short and sweet adventure requires crawling on fours when descending with a touch of balance. Ngurunga cia Njangiri is translated from Kikuyu meaning thugs caves.
