Don’t let the name fool you – Hell’s Gate National Park is a serene haven where you can drive,
hike, or bike past grazing antelope, buffalo, giraffes, and gazelles. Named after the striking gash
in its dramatic red cliffs and renowned for its geothermal activity (steamy vents, geysers, and
mineral springs), this park offers a gateway to active wildlife spotting and outdoor exploration.
Discover the Beauty on Foot
Trek along the park’s cliffs, gorges, and rocky towers with a guided walking safari. While lions
and leopards are rare, you’ll safely encounter eland, hartebeest, and antelope while scanning
the skies for vultures, eagles, and buzzards.
Keep an eye out for zebras, baboons, gazelles, and occasionally, ostriches. If you’re seeking
more adventure, the park permits motorcycling and camping at three designated sites.
Get Active
Perhaps the most exhilarating way to explore the park is on two wheels. Rent a bike and pedal along the “Buffalo Circuit” to get up close to giraffes and enjoy dramatic views of the nearby Longonot volcano.
Climbing enthusiasts will find plenty of opportunities on the park’s rugged rock walls. For an added thrill, scale volcanic formations like Fisher’s or Central Tower. These climbs are
manageable, but you’ll need a guide to navigate safely.
Relax at the Springs and Spas
Hell’s Gate isn’t just active above ground – below the surface, geothermal energy powers three underground stations, Africa’s first. After an active day, unwind in Ol Karia Spa, the largest natural spa in Africa. The mineral-rich warm waters are a perfect way to rejuvenate after hiking,
biking, or climbing.
