Trip details

Safari Overview

Step into the lush embrace of Mt. Kenya's southern slopes and discover Ragati Forest, a hidden paradise of pristine vegetation, crystal streams, and breathtaking waterfalls. This serene forest trail takes you deep into nature's heart, where the whisper of bamboo, the shimmer of water, and the chorus of birds create an unforgettable experience of peace and adventure. Located within the Kamweti Forest Reserve in Karatina, Nyeri County, Ragati Conservancy sits between 2,200m and 3,000m above sea level. The Ragati Waterfalls stand as the centrepiece of this hike, cascading dramatically into a crystal-clear pool surrounded by vibrant greenery and birdsong. The crystal streams are home to rainbow trout, offering a rare chance to combine hiking with highland fly fishing.
