Ngong Hills

Ngong Hills is one of Kenya’s most breathtaking outdoor destinations and a must-visit for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. The rolling landscape is defined by seven major hills, each offering a unique perspective of the surrounding countryside and a rewarding sense of achievement as you traverse the trail. One of the most striking features of Ngong Hills is the wind farm, with towering windmills gracefully lining the ridges. The constant breeze not only powers these turbines but also adds a refreshing, almost therapeutic atmosphere to the hike. It’s a perfect blend of natural beauty and sustainable energy. The panoramic views are truly unforgettable. On a clear day, you’re treated to sweeping vistas of Nairobi on one side and the expansive Suswa plains on the other, showcasing the dramatic contrast between urban life and untouched wilderness. Experiencing both the windward and leeward sides of the hills gives the trail a dynamic feel, with changing weather patterns, lighting, and scenery as you move along. Whether you’re hiking for fitness, photography, or simple relaxation, Ngong Hills delivers an enriching experience. The open skies, rolling hills, cool winds, and wide-angle views make it an ideal escape from the city and a standout destination in Kajiado County. Highly recommended for anyone looking to reconnect with nature and enjoy one of Kenya’s most scenic hiking trails

Well well, You have been keeping this place in your bucket list for over three years now don't you think its time you come and conquer it? The hills are well spaced that gives you that little amount of rest to handle the next one. If your are new to hiking this is the place to begin, so cool, pretty views and an amaizing experience. Tembea Kenya.

A moderate hike. Generally a good place to unwind as you catch the view of Kajiado county. If you have perfect eyesight, you can spot Nairobi town too. The views are magical. Highly recommend

The hike was worth it. I have been to the hills previously but I have never completed the 7 hills. This time I went with that solo mission to start from Ngong and finish in Kiserian. It took me 2hr 45 minutes to complete. I thought it would be 4 hours. But 3rd and 4th hill is the one that will determine whether you give up or push on. Going up requires tact and patience otherwise you might end up giving in. Take your time. Rest when you feel your body calling for it. I think it helps if you are in group to psych each other up each hill. Big up to the young primary school pupils who zoomed past me as they did a walk to raise awareness for Dyslexia. People like taking photos at the 'Mezzanine' hill where Kengen has windmills. But at the top of Hill 7 the scene is super.

Walked from main Gate to Kona Barindi in 1hr 46 minutes. This is my best. Walked back to Main Gate in 2 hrs 19 minutes . Also my best from K.B to main Gate.

Perfect place for escaping the city yet still not far. The road has also been improved as compared to last year.

If you love hiking try to visit Ngong hills. Nature walks open the mind. Cold breezes and planted forests for picnics.

Stunning place amazing sunset and views definitely worth a visit
