Safari Paragliding Road Trip #1
Do you want to get away from the cold winter, no fly days and want to experience a spectacular paragliding roadtrip to four of the most spectacular takeoffs in Kenya?
Then read on!
1. Kaseve
The trip starts with an Airport Transfer from Nairobi International to a cozy hotel 1h south of Nairobi to warm up with an evening soaring session along a wonderful ridge with a breathtaking landscape at sunset.
2. Mbooni
After one night we travel another 3h east to Mbooni Forest and stay 5 nights in a nice lodge with swimming pool and fly the spectacular cliff takeoff of Mbooni Forest, known for its huge XC potential. There is also a landing field next to the hotel for those who would like to fly an out and return.
3. Rift Valley
From there we will drive 3h north crossing over Nairobi, into the Rift Valley, where will stay in a little lodge for 3 nights and enjoy epic paragliding from Kijabe Hill with a chance to walk with wild life on an excursion or hike up or fly over the Mt Longonot crator 5km away from takeoff.
4. Kerio Valley
We then proceed further north on our way across the equator to the Kerio Valley but stop at Nakuru National Park for a 3h Game Drive. We then proceed to the fabulous Kerio Valley, staying for another 5 nights to enjoy the magical thermodynamic ridge soaring at one of the longest cliffs in the world!
