the cool evergreen surroundings. With our skilful driver, we will

dynamics session to bring harmony in the team. After the Team
Dynamics, we will start our Nature Trail/ Hike up the famous Loita
Hills which forms a Cardinal Part of the Maasai Mara Ecosystem. The
escarpment has an abundance of different bird species and wild
animals.
The Turracco, Superb Starling, Common Bulbul, African Pied Wagtail,
Colobus Monkeys, Impalas, amongst others are in plenty. Nguruman
Escarpment and the Loita Hills are in the Nemengineyo Forest; meaning
the forest of the lost Girl. History has it that, a young Maasai Girl
went up the Forest to collect firewood never to come back!!

The hike is refreshing and is purposed to bring us intimately closer
to nature. We will explore the Loita Hills all the way up to the
beautiful waterfalls. It’s so picturesque and guys will get a splendid
opportunity to take memorable photos. The waterfalls are a spectacular
sight to behold!
On one particular visit, a tourist on seeing the Loita Falls
reiterated Dr. Livingstone’s remarks when he first saw the Victoria
Falls in Zambia; “Scenes so Lovely, must have been gazed upon by
Angels on their Flight”. Loita Hills is untamed wilderness and the
wildlife flourishes in its splendor. At 4pm we will begin our descent
as we take more scenic photos.
In the Evening, we will have a Goat Barbeque Party (Nyama Choma) over
a Mesmerizing Bonfire as Guys heartily enjoy themselves. The young
Maasai Warriors in Entasopia will provide entertainment with a rich
display of their cultural heritage. Dinner and overnight at the Cool
