8-Peak Nyandarua Ultra Challenge: The Boldest Hike Yet

8-Peak Nyandarua Ultra Challenge is the boldest hike yet. It follows the Northern Nyandarua Crescent Circuit. It then packs your resilience with the addition of Rhino Hill.

The hike starts at Geta Bushiand quickly diverts to the right past the forest gate. It follows to the valley where the ascent to Kanyundo Peak begins. Kanyundo Peak is the gateway to the open moorlands where we will proceed straight before diverting right and descending to Maratini Hill Summit.

After a summit moment, we will ascend to Rurimueria and then cross to the Seven Ponds for yet another view of the magical tarns. We will then head to Kahithe peak, Rhino Hill, Poster Hill, and finally descend through Table Mountain to Mikeu Shopping Center.
