Chyulu Hills Expedition

Date: 30th April –  1st May 2022

Chyulu Hills is a chain of green scenic rolling hills on the edge of Tsavo West National Park. The hills are remnants of the same volcanic activity associated with the eruption of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Verdant rolling hills of endless green, great blue skies, and spectacular landscape views are what the Chyulu Hills provide to nature lovers. The trip highlight here is cave exploration. Chyulu Hills has one of the deepest known lava tubes cave in the world. Numerous lava tube caves, collectively known by the local community as Kisula Caves, crisscross the depths of the Chyulu Hills.

Itinerary Summary

Day One: Nairobi – Chyulu
Depart Nairobi early and head down Mombasa Road to turn off at Kibwezi into Chyulu. After park clearance embark on the 18km trip to Kisula Caves. If you haven’t seen caves then you haven’t seen Kisula. The caves are what I would call the size of an inverted underground building. The walk takes 2.1km through levant tubes among the longest in the world being an 11 km tube that is hard to go through.
After the caves, take a short rest and head out to the hills at Satellite to camp for the night. The beauty from the campsite is like none experienced.

Day Two: Chyulu – Nairobi
Wake up in the morning to a bush breakfast set up by our chef. Embark on a trip to explore the hills. The verdant rolling hills are plenty and get on top of satellite first, if it’s in it for you go for the other hill.
Return to camp, enjoy lunch, and break camp to depart for Nairobi in the afternoon. Memories of the beautiful green rolling hills will be with you to stay!
