Keep an eye out for the signs indicating the direction to Corner C, which will guide you through the scenic paths. The total drive from the park entrance to the parking area should take about 20 minutes.

Once you arrive at the entrance, walk towards the main gate and pay the entrance fee (which is approximately 500 KES for adults). After entering, follow the well-marked trails to reach Corner C. It will take about 30-45 minutes of walking from the entrance to get to Corner C, depending on your pace.
