Safari Overview

Embark on an exhilarating journey to Oldoinyo Lesatima, the highest peak in the Aberdares and Kenya's third-highest summit, towering at an impressive 4,001m (13,126ft) above sea level. Nestled on the northern side of the Aberdare Range, this majestic peak is accessible via the iconic Dragon's Teeth Hike through Shamata Gate. The 16km trail is a hiker's dream, weaving through fields of lush alpine vegetation, offering glimpses of wildlife, and leading you past the stunning craggy moraines famously known as the "Dragon's Teeth." As we conquer Mt. Satima Peak, this trail rewards us with some of the most breathtaking views Kenya has to offer, a true paradise for every hiker and nature enthusiast.
