Maasai Trails

Our Maasai guides will come to meet and greet you before the trail begins. You will talk through your upcoming trail. The pack donkeys will be brought in from nearby enkangs on your first day’s walk; the equipment will be weighed, measured and packed in preparation for your foot safari.
Once all the provisions and camp equipment have been packed, the donkey caravan will set off into the forest to set up the next camp.
 
Due to the altitude of the Loita area and the terrain that we traverse, we do not plan to walk for longer than 6 hours a day. Within very short distances you can walk through very different ecosystems and habitats.
Normally the walks are three hours in the morning, stop for a leisurely lunch then a further three hours in the afternoon.
​
This is only a guideline though and we will adapt the length of the walk to your wishes.

How the trails work?
1. Chose a trail,
2. Meet your guides,
3. Set off into the forest,
4. Spend your days exploring,
5. Back to base for the rest of your safari!
