Rurimueria Hill is also known as Rurimeria Hill. The hill earns its name from weeds that grew at its summit, known in the Maasai language as Olurumueria.

Rurimueria welcomes with a steep stretch. Technically, it takes about 10 to 15 minutes to walk to the electric fence from the school. The electric fence separates the residential area from the forest. The trail is approximately 8 kilometres. From the starting point to the summit, then back to the starting point again. Generally, It will take two to four hours to trek up the Rurimueria hill. 1 to 4 hours to descend. It may take longer in the event of rain. The reason you should have a proper trekking boot. Your level of fitness also determines how much time you take.

Rurimueria requires a standard level of fitness. At least, it is paramount that before you attempt to climb his hill, try several other smaller trails. The difficulty of hiking Rurimeria is moderate to high, depending on your fitness and experience level. It is not ideal for children, older people, beginners, and persons with any health complications. Additionally, read essential tips on how to prepare for a hike. To know what to bring. Most of the hiking trails in the Aberdare ranges, like Rurimueria, are prerequisites for preparing for high-elevation treks. Rurimueria is also a perfect trek for hikers who love traverse hikes. From the Rurimeria peak, you can traverse to Seven Ponds and Table Mountain summits on the West. Or mount Satima on the North.
