🌋Climbing Up a Volcano in Kenya / We Hiked Mount Longonot And Walked Around it's Crater
At 2860m above sea level, Mount Longonot is one of the highest in Kenya, Africa and offers some stunning 360 degrees views. But the inside of the crater is what's very impressing!

Mount Longonot is protected by Kenya Wildlife Service as part of Mount Longonot National Park. A 3.1 km trail runs from the park entrance up to the crater rim, and continues in a 7.2 km loop encircling the crater. The whole tour "gate-around the rim-gate" of 13.5 km takes about 4-5 hours. Parts of the trail are heavily eroded and very steep but is overall very manageable. The gate elevation is around 2150 m and the peak at 2776 m but following the jagged rim involves substantially more than the 630 m vertical difference.
If you like the outdoors and are always looking for a new challenge, hiking Mount Longonot should be added to your "things to do in Kenya" list.

This reminds me on Dec 12th '19, I visited this place in the afternoon, it was cloudy and when I got to the summit, I was by myself, I went ahead and circumnavigated the crater, and rain caught me halfway, it was such an experience and an endurance test for myself, it took me 2hrs 30 minutes for the whole adventure

You guys did well to go in the morning as the chilly June weather translates into those clouds thus adding to the mystery and constant review of where the peak is. Also, after tackling the rim I'm pretty sure it's sth you never want to repeat but you still had it easy, not like going when you can see just how much farther you need to go which is demoralising.
