The experience
Experience the landscape on foot with guided walking safaris along the edge of the Oloololo Escarpment. A walking experience creates space to notice the terrain and smaller details of the bush alongside the wider views.
Walking changes what you notice. Without the frame of a vehicle window, the small details of plants, tracks and birdlife become part of the experience. The type of walk matters: a conservancy walk, a lakeside visit and an escarpment walk are different outings.
JohnBow's catalogue includes walking on the Oloololo Escarpment in the Angama Mara programme, guided experiences associated with Borana, and a Crescent Island walk combined with Lake Naivasha. Choose the location first, then confirm the actual walk available there.
What to expect
A local guide sets the route, pace and briefing. Stay with the arranged programme and follow the guide's directions throughout.
Ask about terrain, the amount of walking and any individual activity restrictions before choosing the outing. Tell us about the people travelling so we can check suitability.
Leave room in the day to observe rather than treating the walk as a transfer between two other activities.
Who it suits
- Travellers choosing an activity around their actual destination and route
- Guests who want time for a specific interest alongside the wider safari
