Karura Forest in Mwingi
Description
Privilege
I loved the whole experience. It had been a while riding a bike, so that was completely a fun experience. More especially in the serene environment that the forest provides.
MoreA good place to enjoy nature walk
A nice and serene place to relax and unwind
Super amazing place to visit. Nice, wide walking paths with improved dirt surfaces, so few tripping hazards. Paths are easy to navigate if you know where north is, and have a picture of the trail map/a copy of the trail map. Staff are friendly and helpful with getting you in and oriented within the trail system. The waterfall is especially a neat place to visit, and is worth the walk up. Infrequent, small hills with mostly flat or sloping trail systems up throughout the cafe area.We did not see any wildlife on a Sunday morning, but the group that went the day prior saw many monkeys and birds.Ubering out from the city center was 400-600 KSH depending on the time of day, so affordable for the trip. Didnt have to wait too long either as there were several drivers in the area.Google maps work well to assist with navigating the trails.

MoreAmazing natural forest terrain within the Nairobi city. Rich healthy oxygen, tropical rainforest with tourists taking forest walks with amazing natural sites, waterfall, preserved widlives, warm friendly Kenyan hosts..
MoreI absolutely love this place. A beautiful forest within the city with beautiful scenery and very huge trees that offer amazing canopies. There are monkeys within the park. The place offers an excellent environment for jogging, running, cycling, walking, site seeing and group meetups. Pets are allowed as there are designated dog trails. They offer bicycles for hiring at KSH500/- for 2hrs however you can bring your own for free. Cyling trails are smooth and clear. There are nature walk trails with views of a small river with a waterfall, caves and gigantic exotic trees. Theres ample and secure parking clean washrooms and changing areas. It is ideal for a hangout for large groups of people. There are park entry fees too at the main gate entrance at KSH150/-.
