Kereita Forest

Indigenous forest on the eastern edge of the Aberdares — waterfalls, ziplines and singletrack.

Kereita is a slice of lush indigenous forest just an hour from Nairobi, on the southern tip of the Aberdare range. It’s the home of the longest zipline in East Africa, a beautiful waterfall hike, and some of the best mountain biking trails in Kenya.

The forest is cool, fern-filled and laced with bird calls — a perfect day escape.
