Description
Discover the natural beauty of the Ngong Hills on a guided hiking and kite flying tour from Nairobi. Enjoy panoramic views of the Great Rift Valley and Nairobi’s skyline.
Begin with a pickup from Nairobi and a short drive to the Ngong Hills trailhead. After a safety briefing, set off on a guided hike along the ridge, passing open grasslands and wind-swept viewpoints. As you walk, enjoy sweeping views of Nairobi’s skyline on one side and the Great Rift Valley on the other.
Along the hike, your guide will share information about the area’s geography, local wildlife, and cultural significance. The hills are home to birds of prey, grazing livestock, and unique highland vegetation, making the hike both relaxing and educational.
At a suitable open spot along the ridge, take part in a kite flying session, a popular activity at Ngong Hills thanks to the steady winds. Whether you’re flying a kite for the first time or reliving childhood memories, this experience adds a playful and memorable element to the tour.
