Mt Suswa Hike — Half-Crater Circuit

A Hidden Gem in the Great Rift Valley Mt. Suswa is an underrated gem on the Rift Valley floor. The double-crater shield-volcano promises an unmatched hiking experience and over-delivers on breathtaking views. We are delighted to dive into the enchantment of the Mt Suswa hike all over again this year. We aim to conquer ourselves by going halfway around the massive crater. Our hike starts at the road head on the edge of the inner crater. Here, we will enjoy breathtaking views across the 5km-wide crater. Our hike around the crater will take us to the summit, rising to an elevation of 2,356m above sea level. Once we conquer ourselves at the summit, we shall return to the road head to board our transfer vehicles back to Nairobi.
