O
Rýchle fakty: Lush trails meander through bamboo groves and towering fig trees, where monkeys dart above and dozens of bird species call the canopy home. More than 12 kilometers of paths and boardwalks lead past streams and waterfalls, and visitors often sense the legacy of local conservation efforts that saved the area from development.
Zaujímavosti: Walk beneath towering fig trees and dense bamboo and you get hit by the smell of wet earth and the rush of streams cutting through a 1,041-hectare urban forest, where more than 200 bird species flit through the canopy and sunlight speckles the leaf litter. Wangari Maathai once chained herself to a tree during the campaign to save the forest, and that defiant act evolved into a community planting tradition that has put tens of thousands of seedlings back into the canopy.
Insiderské tipy
- Wear closed shoes with good grip, trails get slippery after rain.
- Start at the main gate and head for the waterfalls and bamboo grove for the best photos.
- Carry binoculars for turacos, kingfishers and other birds, and keep a respectful distance from colobus monkeys.
- Avoid weekend late mornings and afternoons to dodge crowds; weekday mornings offer the best quiet experience.

Robil som tieto prehliadky v desiatkach miest a boli vrcholom takmer každej cesty. Ak navštívite Nairobi, Kenya, urobte to v prvý deň. Poďakujete mi neskôr.
