Itinerary description
|
Descend from the top of the Kerio Valley Cliff (Rift Valley, Kenya) to the Sego Safari Lodge Hotel, at your feet. From 2700m to 1300m; 1400 meters of descent in only 11.5kms. With a comfortable start to the track in good condition and a steep, cobbled finish.
Despite the physical requirement, the route is suitable for all audiences. I did it with the family, from 3 years old (in my arms from time to time) until 73. With patience, stopping as long as it took, we took 5:30. In good shape it should be able to do in less than 3 hours. And, running, in less than an hour (but it will be necessary to save strength by the strong descent of the final part).
If the day is hot, it is advisable to bring plenty of fluids. During the first part you can see houses and people who can offer water, but it will become more and more difficult as you lose height. On arrival, however, the hotel offers drinks, food and a swimming pool (although the water is almost always greenish in color).
