Mount Suswa Crater Hike

  • Mount Suswa
  • 1 Day
  • Duration: 1 Day

Overview

Mount Suswa Crater Hike lies silently at the heart of the great Rift Valley. This is a perfect getaway for everyone looking for an escape into the winds and a view from the top of a crater.

Mount Suswa crater has a double rim, promises breathtaking views, and attracts hikers above 10 years of age who are healthy to attempt. The hike starts at the road end, from where we ascend to the top of the crater and then slightly around the crater to the summit.

The summit is perfect for viewing the expanded landscapes as you relax in the summit wind. After snacking and a summit moment, we will descend to the starting point for our journey back.
