Accesso
The forest is an hour drive from the capital Nairobi, only 8 km from Kimende off the Nairobi Naivasha highway. Birding in the forest involves walking along the nature trails. Inside the forest you will mostly rely on bird songs and calls to identify the species. A a lot of patience therefore has to be applied.
