    Mount Longonot is a stratovolcano located southeast of Lake Naivasha in the Great Rift Valley of Kenya, Africa. It is thought to have last erupted in the 1860s.

    did this hike and around the crater about 26 years ago. I remember it vividly there was really fine soil ash-like that one would find it very difficult to walksince there was almost no traction. There were no stairs then but mostly not a whole lot has changed.

    Thanks to the late John Hoy who took me up, panting and exhausted, to the top of Mt. Longonot in 1985/1986! John was a seasoned climber and runner and in far better shape. I was / am not. Afrikan Traveller, thanks for the memories.
    Note: A zero load, or a much lighter load (very light backpack) makes a BIG difference!

    Nice adventure i enjoy watching your TH-cam channel especially with spectacular views which are quite unique we at diaspora don't take it for granted. But you're hiking at Mt Longonot was disappointing as i was expecting your drone video to show us the Ariel view of the crater itself from above.that would have been something.

    I' visited great grandma sis and her family in limuru side as a kid, this crater, longonot and the big settelite are the view from their frontyard in the lush limuru side. They later took me to mai-mahiu to meet other family members there, we the boys decided to check it out. They were telling me of leopards that trick people to step on it tail on trail paths and buffalos that don't like the sight of humans. We didn't reach it we ended in a beautiful waterfall on longonot opposit hill, I think called mount Margaret hill, swam at it pool all day then went back, saw giraffes and zebra, we also decended deep sunken earth gullies with trees and eat some wild fruits in there known as mbiyo or something like that.
