Description
Take in sweeping views of Nairobi and the Great Rift Valley as you hike along the scenic Ngong Hills are a perfect escape from the city for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Located just over 35 km from Nairobi (about a 1.5-hour drive), the hills lie within the Ngong Hills Forest Reserve, which spans 21,000 hectares of protected land.
The range features seven distinct peaks, with four standing taller than the rest, offering a rewarding challenge for hikers. The highest point reaches 2,460 meters (8,072 feet), delivering stunning vistas of the surrounding countryside, Nairobi city, and the expansive Rift Valley. These hills are not only a natural wonder but also part of literary history, famously featured in Karen Blixen’s memoir Out of Africa and its acclaimed film adaptation.
