We'll have a picnic lunch at the wonderful gorge. After lunch we'll walk down the Hell's Gate Gorge by descending into a steep canyon with running water from geysers and wild vegetation. The climax of the day is in walking in the Side Gorge where the rocks have split to leave only a walking path. We climb back followed by a transfer back to our wonderful camp through Olkaria geo-thermal plant.

Day 03: Mt. Longonot National Park.
An early start of the day. Early breakfast and then we head for Mt. Longonot - an extinct crater in the Great Rift Valley. A hike to the rim of the crater should reveal an array of wildlife as well as amazing birds, which are found here in a wide variety.  

We shall have a picnic lunch at scenic point at the rim of the crater - the highest point on the rim. We go round the rim and descend to the park gate and then head back to our lodge.

In many respects the Mara is the most spectacular part of the trip, with long views over flat-topped acacias and glassy plains with abundance of animals. We'll arrive at our camp just in time for lunch. In the mid-afternoon we venture out to the expansive game reserve for a game viewing drive in search of the big five and the large concentration of game animals such as zebras and wildebeests.
