The mount Longonot height is 2780m above sea level and it has a wide crater at the top with small green trees and volcanic spaced steam vents along the crater wall. The mountain is located inside of a park bearing the same name. Mt Longonot 1 day hike is very popular due to its short distance from Nairobi city and the lower park entrance fees.<\/p>\n<p>The hike on <a href=\"https:\/\/webscreationsdesign.co.uk\/seamtravel\/1-day-trips\/mount-longonot-day-trip-hike\/\">mt Longonot<\/a> takes between 3-5 hours depending on pace and fitness. The hike from gate to the crater rim is 3.1km in length but the height gain is rapid and this makes for a stiff climb. One can also decide to circumnavigate the crater rim which is a distance of 7.2km. The hiking trail is provided with some rest points but its narrow especially on the crater rim.<\/p>\n<p>The total length of the hike up, around the crater rim and back is 10.3km through some narrow paths and treacherously steep inclines.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=&#8221;custom_dropshadow&#8221;
