Paleo Trails Africa
Summit & savanna, one operator
The Ngong Hills are the green ridge that frames Nairobi's western skyline, made famous by Karen Blixen's 'Out of Africa'. This full-day walk crosses all seven summits along the ridge, climbing steadily from Ngong town to Kona Baridi with sweeping views over the Rift Valley, Mount Suswa and, on clear days, Kilimanjaro. A perfect introduction to Kenyan walking: no camping, no altitude, just a long beautiful day on the hill with a local guide.
