Explore on Foot with Masai Guides Walking Safari trek with local Masai on a traditional hiking safari in the remote Loita Hills, one of Kenya's last tracts of genuine wilderness. Rarely visited by outsiders. Your adventure begins with a privately guided hike through the homeland of the Maasai clan, guided by tribesmen whose homeland includes the Loita Hills. Spend 3-6 days discovering the 200km2 Sacred Forest filled with cedar, podo and strangler figs, waterfalls, and spectacular birdlife. The area is inaccessible to vehicles, and the wilderness is relatively untouched. Some 2,000 colobus monkeys roam the trees, and you're also likely to see or find evidence of elephant, buffalo, baboon, bushbuck, bush pig, leopard and hyena. Your private guided hiking safari features a route custom-tailored to your physical abilities and interests. It's an adventure to thrill even the most seasoned safari-goer!

Day 1: MAJI MOTO

Drive from Nairobi via Narok to Maji Moto, located at the Northern foot of the Loita Hills. Maji Moto means Hot water in Swahili and a steaming spring oozes clear water out of the rocks. The afternoon is used for leisure, exploring the surroundings and watching the sunset from a hillside viewpoint. After fusk, you can have a bath in natural hot water as locals have done from immemorial. Dinner served as campfire chats about the Maasai Culture. You will then retire to your tent at will.

Day 2: MOTOROK

After an early breakfast, our hike will cover Savanna grasslands with views of the magnificent landscape and the traditional Maasai people in Loita Hill. Over the grassland, you may sight zebra, gazely, giraffe, gnu, wildebeest, hartebeest, baboons and many species of birds, and more. “Motorok” in Maa dialect means Egyptian goose, which is likely to be seen at the salt lick spring. Overnight camping at Motorok.

Day 3: OLTULELEI

Walking through Maasai land, we pass through the Maasai town of Narosora, an agricultural hub where we will stop to add to our supplies of food and water. We will have lunch along the way and camp overnight at Oltulelei.

Day 4: NCHORROI

Walking through thick forests and crossing rivers, we enjoy the beauty of the landscape, seeing many birds along the way. We have lunch en route, and camp overnight at Nchorroi.

Day 5: NAIROBI

After rising early to see a beautiful sunrise over the Great Rift Valley, we make a final steep descent to Nguruman village at bottom of the escarpment. We meet our vehicle to return to Nairobi via Lake Magadi
