Day 1 Morijo to Kanunka River Camp

Morijo is at the edge of the forest, a contrast of exposed Maasai wilderness we are used to. A 5 hour trail through animal tracts under beautiful forest overgrowths dotted with occasional openings revealing the beauty of the land delivers us to our camp by River Kanunka where we will spend the night.

As we bonfire into the night the sounds of rock hyraxes, a leopard howl and laughing hyenas will sooth us into our tents.

Day 2; Kanunka Camp to Esoit Neigero Camp

We walk along the river and once again we re-enter the forest and walk under the cool canopies of the equatorial forest. On this day we reach the highest point on this ridge and from here we are rewarded with two magical views of mountains Ol Donyo Lengai and Kilimanjaro in neighboring Tanzania, also seen from this point is Shompole Hill in Nguruman Escarpment.

Along the trail sightings of bush bucks and water bucks grazing quietly only distracted by your presence is exciting. It’s also possible to sight Elephants and buffalos. The day ends at the clearing that is Esoit Neigero Campsite where we also spend the night.

Day 3; Esoit Neigero Camp to Entasopia Camp

On this day we walk a few hours in the jungle before exiting the forest into the acacia wilderness. The trail will take us down the hills into Nguruman Escarpment. The major attraction for the day is Entasopia River and Waterfall.  Here we can take a dip to cool ourselves. In the evening magical views of Lake Magadi and Mt. Orgasaille in the horizon under the sunset will bond you with nature. Later we head to our campsite to settle in as we savor the last in night in this magical landscape.
