Loita Hills – Nguruman Trek.

Loita Hills, Nguruman Trek: Experience
the wonders of Loita Hills and Nguruman Escarpment on a hiking safari in Kenya. Learn about Maasai culture, and traditions, and explore the diverse wildlife along the way. Loita Hills, Nguruman trek. Walking
through scattered bushes and exploring the beautiful Loita Hills onto the Nguruman escarpment, hiking safaris in Kenya.

The Loita Hills are one of Kenya’s last remaining ‘true wilderness’ areas. There are no roads, tracks or footpaths, and the likelihood of our seeing anyone else on the trek is remote. Indeed, our only other companions will be the wild game that inhabits the grasslands and montane forests of this remote region. Where appropriate, we will be walking along game trails and in the late afternoons may move from the ridge tops, down into the valley in search of suitable campsites. Nights are generally spent camped next to cool streams that rise in these hills and on leaving the next morning, the only evidence of our passing should be a small circle of ash and a few fire blackened rocks marking the place we had the campfire and cooked the evening meal.
