Embark on an adventurous Bamboo Forest Trek in Aberdares. Starting from Njabini Forest Station, the 5-6 hour hike begins at an altitude of 2500m. Traverse flat forest terrain, witness evidence of cultivation, and encounter wildlife. As you enter the Bamboo zone, navigate treacherous mud and experience a canopy of towering bamboo. Reach the moorland zone with stunning flora, tussock grass, and giant heather. Enjoy panoramic views of Sasumua Dam and Ndakaini Dam at "Point Despair" before ascending the summit at 3650m. Descend through rocky terrain, taking caution, and appreciate the Aberdares' beauty. Gather at Njabini Forest Station for reflections and safety reminders about the unpredictable weather at higher altitudes. Prepare for changing conditions with rain gear and warm clothes. Join us for this unforgettable trek—because once is never enough!
