Discover the Natural Wonders of Kangere 1

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, start from Nanyuki town, which is one of the main access points to Mount Kenya. Take the Nanyuki to Nyeri road (A2) and head towards Nyeri. After approximately 25 kilometers, look for signage pointing to Kangaita. Turn onto the road leading to Kangaita and continue for another 15 kilometers until you reach the coordinates H7QJ+MP, which is the location of Kangere 1. Ensure your vehicle is suitable for potentially rough terrain as roads can be unpaved in this area.

• Public Transportation

  To reach Kangere 1 using public transportation, take a matatu (shared minibus) from Nanyuki to Nyeri. These matatus leave frequently from the Nanyuki town center. Once you arrive in Nyeri, you will need to transfer to another matatu heading towards Kangaita. Inform the driver of your destination, and they will drop you off as close as possible to the coordinates H7QJ+MP. Note that you may have to walk a short distance from the drop-off point to reach Kangere 1.

• Hiking

  For the adventurous, consider hiking from the nearest access points in Mount Kenya National Park. Begin your hike from the nearest lodge or campsite, following the marked trails towards Kangaita. Ensure you have a local guide if you are unfamiliar with the terrain, as it can be challenging. Bring appropriate hiking gear and sufficient water and food supplies, as this can be a full-day trek depending on your starting point.
