Come arrivare

From Nairobi, take the A104 (the highway following the escarpment) until you come to the following settlement: S0 52 46.1 E36 33 46.8 This dirt road is in excellent condition and will lead you down the escarpment to the settlement of Kijabe. Continue until you come to an intersection with another dirt road that obviously leads to the top of the mountain. Park where the road comes to an end. During the dry season, it will be easy to reach Kijabe in a two-wheel vehicle, but (from experience) during the rainy season, I strongly recommend a 4X4. Finally, when turning your car around at the top, be very careful. A few years back some Japanese visitors didn't pay enough attention and rolled their car all the way to the bottom!

Meteo

Thunderstorms with all their inherent dangers can develop incredibly quickly in this part of the world. Be very conscious of possible over-development!

Regole / spazio aereo

Just get up there and fly. Try not to land in crops.
