    Mt. Satima via Dragon Teeth Route, Aberdares (4001m-13127ft)

    August 25, 2019 / 1 Comment

    After arriving at Dragon teeth some of us proceeded for another hour and a half to get to Mt. Satima still in the Aberdares The hike to Mt. Satima got steeper and the altitude made it hard to walk. We were lucky the sun was out but it was very cold. There were a lot of water bogs and deep holes on the way. The last stretch before Mt. Satima peak was very steep and the altitude made us extra tired. Being at the peak of Mt. Satima is breathtaking since I’ve always wanted to go. But the cold breeze was too much and my hands were numb. Gloves and…

    Dragon Teeth Hike and The Twin Rocks, Aberdares

    August 10, 2019 /

    I heard of dragon teeth about a month before and I was curious to see what it was all about. It’s one of the routes with the least foot traffic in the Aberdare ranges. At least for now. We left Nairobi around 5 am and the journey up to the gate took 5 hours with 2 stopovers. I’d advise leaving earlier than 5 am for better time management. There are two access gates, Shamata and Rhino gates. Rhino gate is on Muiga side accessed via Nyeri. We got to the KWS gates around 11 am. It took a while to pay the park fee on Shamata gate. There’s another drive…

    Manguyo Falls-Aberdares Forest

    July 15, 2019 / No Comments

    Manguyo falls is a magnificent looking waterfall deep in the Aberdares forest. It is located in Kangema, Muranga county in a place called Tuthu. It took us 3 hours from Nairobi where upon arrival to Tuthu village, we picked up armed guards from Kenya Forest Service station. On our trip, we had two. We had a shuttle bus which we had to park a few meters from the starting point since the road is a little narrow. Before proceeding to cross the fence separating Tuthu village from the forest, we were introduced to two male guides. One was in his 70s and the other probably in his 60s. But don’t…
