Rift Valley
Eburu Forest
Eburru Forest crowns the geologically active Mt Eburru, a volcanic massif in the Great Rift Valley. Mt Eburru is a key influence on local weather patterns, creating a catchment for rainfall that feeds Lake Naivasha and Lake Elmenteita. The biodiversity of the Eburu is astounding, with some 60 species of mammal and a tiny relic population of the critically endangered mountain bongo. A gentle walk through Eburru will reveal active steam vents, many forest bird species and a rich floral ecosystem.
The entry fee to Eburu is $7 per person.
