Overview

Mount Longonot National Park is one of the many fascinating, yet least visited, attractions of Kenya. Located in the Lake Naivasha region it is dominated by Mount Longonot itself. This stratovolcano, last thought to have erupted in the 1860's, is 2776 m above sea level.

Mount Longonot gets its name from its physical features - the Maasai word oloonong'ot, meaning "mountains of many spurs" or "steep ridges".

There are no lodge accommodation facilities in the park itself but Naivasha town and surrounds has a range of options. Mount Longonot National Park is also easily accessible from Nairobi (90 Kms)on a tarmac road.

Mount Longonot is a 13.5 kilometer heavily trafficked loop trail located near Kijabe, Rift Valley, Kenya that features beautiful wild flowers and is rated as difficult. The trail is primarily used for hiking and nature trips and is accessible year-round.

How long does it take to climb Mount Longonot?

The whole walk is only about 8–9 km long but is very steep. The round trip from the park entrance gate to the Longonot peak and back takes around 5 hours of hiking.
