Event Highlights
Four distance options from 14.5km to 52km catering for all levels
Stunning Rift Valley scenery around Lake Naivasha
Technical trail terrain with real elevation gain
Well-organised by Bucket List Adventures with a strong safety record
Course Details
The course runs through the rugged terrain around Naivasha, with rocky trails, open ridges, and forest sections depending on the route. The longer distances involve significant elevation gain so poles are worth considering for the 52km. Expect loose rock and uneven ground throughout.
Getting There
The race starts at Maiella Primary School near Naivasha, roughly 90km northwest of Nairobi via the A104. Naivasha town is about 15 to 20 minutes from the venue. The drive from Nairobi takes around 1.5 to 2 hours depending on traffic.
