Description

Take a guided day trip from Nairobi to ride a bike through Hell's Gate National Park and enjoy a boat ride on the freshwater lake of Naivasha, with entry tickets and hotel transfers included.
Situated just south of Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate National Park is the only national park in Kenya that you can explore on foot.

Unlike other national parks in Kenya, there are no predators here apart from the occasional leopard sighting.

Instead, the appeal comes from the beautiful scenery formed by millions of years of geothermal activity.

The park itself was established back in 1984 and named 'Hell's Gate' due to powerful forces shaping the national park from below.

Dramatic volcanic rocky outcrops, obsidian caves, spitting geysers, rock towers, sandstone cliffs, and water gouged gorges are what make this park worth visiting.

Hell's Gate National Park is a great choice for thrill-seekers; mountain biking, rock climbing, and hiking are some of the available activities. After that we will tour lake Naivasha with a boat and enjoy the breeze and learn about fish eagles and hippos.
