Day 3: Sweetwaters – The Forest – Naivasha

Enjoy your breakfast before departing for Kereita Forest. Take a scenic drive to Kimende and a further 10 kilometers ride brings us to the Carbacid Forest Gate which is our starting Point. This general area sits on top of an underground natural Carbon dioxide reservoir that is currently mined by Carbacid limited for industrial and commercial purposes.
During the first hour, you’ll hike through large open clearings and as you get further into the forest land and descend into the first river valley, the clearings give way to indigenous trees. The trail then goes deeper into the forest, with the undergrowth now getting thicker and more interesting and varied. Giant ferns and climbers abound deep in the forest, competing for the meager light filtering though old gnarled mammoth trees that stand tall and proud, untouched by human exploitation. The sounds of various species of monkeys and birds increasingly become a regular part of the jungle. The trail is hardly noticeable due to infrequent visitors to this part of the forest. The guide therefore has to carry a machete for cutting his way through some of the undergrowth, in addition to following animal trails going the general direction of the waterfall.
After walking up and down two steep river valleys for about two hours, the trail passes by Elephant Pool, a large natural water body that Elephants love to frolic in before finally getting down to Kereita Waterfall on Gatamaiyu River. This waterfall drops 60 feet to the stream below.
To the right side of the waterfall is a cave with a small bat population. Enjoy a short rest and walk back to enjoy lunch.
