Embark on a guided hike to the Seven Ponds in the Aberdares. Enjoy breathtaking views, a challenging ascent, and the reward of discovering the seven ponds at the summit.
Start your hike near the Kenya Wildlife electric fence, about 400 meters from the Kwa Matu shopping center. Begin your ascent, navigating the steep initial section of the trail. As you climb, take in the stunning moorland views that surround you.
Continue your trek, reaching a maximum elevation of around 3,817-3,831 meters. The trail features a mix of steep sections and flatter areas, especially near the summit where the ponds are located.
Arrive at the summit, where you’ll find the series of seven small water bodies (tarns) set against a backdrop of breathtaking moorland views. Take a moment to rest and enjoy the scenery before beginning your descent.
The hike typically covers 11-14 kilometers, with a total time of 7-10 hours including ascent and descent. Be sure to complete the descent before dusk to avoid encountering wildlife and to hike with a group for safety.

महत्वपूर्ण जानकारी
The hike is challenging due to high elevation and steep initial ascent.
Weather can be unpredictable, so prepare accordingly.
It's recommended to complete the descent before dusk to avoid wildlife.
Hiking with a group is advised for safety.
The central meeting point is Two Rivers Mall Limuru Rd Nairobi. From there, we head out to Ndunyu Njeru. The journey to the starting point is about four hours long. Have a generous breakfast at least 3 hours before the start of the hike. This ensures that most of the food has been digested by the time you begin the hike, giving you the much-needed energy while ensuring your stomach is not too full for comfort.
Use the bathroom before leaving the house to reduce the need for bathroom breaks on the commute.
Set your mind up for conquering yourself. Hiking is more about your mindset than physical preparation. Once you win the battle in your mind, everything else contributes less than 10%. You can do it!
