Cruzeiro Safaris

These hills are known as a challenge for Mountain climbers - they are in total 7 hills but in the middle you can think they are 14 hills.

The base has also been used by the KENGEN - one of Kenya power generating company there they have place large wind mills to generate electivity using the WINDPOWER in Kenya. These large turbines look small while far but when you actually come closer  - they are big elongated houses. Another, unique thing that we saw was that the base is used by individuals and religious groups as a place for divine connection.

The journey, through the open land and the forest brings you close to the high altitude of 2300meters, in addition you get a spectacular view of both the west and east of the hills - on the far sides the Suswa hills - the Mt Longonot, the Aberdare ranges, and many others - landscape photographers would love it here.

Beware, not to go alone as you will require an armed ranger to take you across - this is because there are the wild animals still present, as we saw at one point the buffalo droppings - who were grazing at a distance.
You can either decide to ascend on one side of the hills and return from the middle or continue an descend at a place called 'kona baridi ' - (cold corner).definitely the going back is not  interesting while you are at the middle of the hills - so i would recommend you walk till the end.

Depending, on how fit you are the whole journey can take 4 hours or more at most. Its advisable to go in the morning as the hot sun can hinder your faster walking.
Carry, comfortable walking shoes, wear a good fitting trouser and a hat if possible, some water would do as well. If you are with a tour guide make sure to advice him to pick you from at 'kona baridi'.
For large groups its better to have your own personal guides who are experienced in mountain climbing - for more assistance and information please get in touch with the author.
