Rising from the shores of Lake Naivasha up to at an elevation of 2,776m
(9108ft), Mt Longonot is the highest volcano in the Great Rift Valley. One
of the youngest volcanoes in the world, Mt. Longonot is also among the most
accessible mountain in the world. Mt Longonot is known for its exceptional
scenic beauty, amazing V-shaped valleys and vast crater, offering an
unforgettable sight.
The magnificent Mt Longonot National Park on its slopes is home to unique
flora and fauna, attracting nature lovers and trekkers from all over the
world.
Mt
Longonot is quite popular with trekkers, as it offers easy ascent through
spectacular slopes up to the crater. The trek up to the rim of the crater
takes between 4-5 hours, and although very narrow, it is possible to walk
around the entire rim. Mt Longonot is also a migratory route for animals
moving from Hell's Gate to Masai Mara National Park. Its lush slopes attract
many grazing animals including Zebras, Buffalos, Gazelles, Leopards, Colobus
Monkeys and Baboons, offering an excellent opportunity to visitors to see
them in their own natural habitat. Once you are on the top, just enjoy the
breathtaking views of the surroundings, which never fail to mesmerize its
visitors.
