Itinerary
Oloolua Nature Trail makes for an easy and refreshing half-day trip from Nairobi. A good itinerary is to leave the city around 8:00 AM so you can arrive in Karen by about 9:00 AM before the trails get busy. Once you enter the forest reserve, you can spend the next two to three hours walking the approximately 5 km loop trail at a relaxed pace. The trail passes through indigenous forest, bamboo sections, small bridges, a river, a cave, and a scenic waterfall that is one of the highlights of the walk. The terrain is generally easy and beginner-friendly, making it suitable for casual hikers, couples, families, or anyone wanting a quiet nature escape without leaving Nairobi.
