Subukia Valley Ride

A long descent into the Subukia valley with viewpoint and waterfall stops — and a support vehicle to carry you back up the escarpment if you would rather not climb it.

Subukia sits in a green fold of the Rift Valley north of Nakuru, and the road down into it is one of the best descents in the county — switchbacks, waterfalls and viewpoints that keep interrupting the ride in the best way.

The climb back out is optional. The support vehicle is there for anyone who has had enough by lunchtime, and nobody judges. Back in Nakuru by 4:30.
