A Hike to Mau Mau Caves in Mt Kenya

This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Mau-Mau Cave, Kenya

Overview
The Mau Mau caves at the foothills of Mt Kenya open out to a beautiful waterfall and pass-through rocks on the Burguret River. Once covered a dense forest these caves are well known for their historical significance.
During Kenya's fight struggle for independence, the Mau Mau freedom fighters used these caves to store supplies as well as hideouts from the colonial forces led by the British and the collaborators.

Getting there
We will drive from Nairobi to Bantu Lodge near Nanyuki where our hike begins.
The 9 KM trail begins at the Bantu Lodge and takes you through the wild bushes and relatively short indigenous trees teeming baboons, birds and other wildlife.

When you get to the caves a swaying footbridge leads you to the shallow cave mostly made up of a large sheltered space.

A short hike across takes you to the top of the waterfalls with magnificent views of the waterfalls.

We shall return to the lodge again for lunch and relaxation before beginning our journey back to Nairobi.
