Guided by local Maasai, we continue to learn about the land, traditions, and way of life, making this a challenging but deeply rewarding experience.

    This is our last full day of trekking through the beautiful Loita Hills, covering about 20km as we take in the landscape. The trail challenges us physically but rewards us with stunning vistas and a deeper appreciation for this unique environment.

    Days 12–13

    Lale’enok Research Centre

    All meals included

    We split into groups and rotate between a programme of activities, working alongside the Maasai people and scientists involved with this cultural and scientific research centre. We learn about the research taking place, the issues of human-animal conflict, and the ongoing conservation efforts in the area. Over the next few days, we take part in a range of activities such as game drives, visits to Maasai homes and women’s groups, research projects, educational talks with locals, river rafting, and women’s bead workshops.

    Whatever the personal goals — travel, adventure, wildlife watching, or simply something different — time at Lale’enok is a real highlight. This is the real Kenya, well beyond the usual tourism destinations.
