|
28.9km |
High traffic, Unsafe, Touring |
| This is a very unsafe route out of Nairobi. The shoulder is in very poor shape (May, 2009) and often missing. A mirror is essential so that you can keep an eye on traffic behind you. Rember that traffic is on the left hand in Kenya and make sure your mirror will work for this traffic.

54km |
Steep, Rough, Safe, Scenic, Touring |
| This is a day tour of Hells Gate--one of the first parks to allow bicyles. A clock wise direction is preferable for me because the steep downhill is in bad shape--your milage may vary. A short excursion at the end to a small lake that used to be attached to the main lake. It is one of few public water front accesses to the lake. |

| great road until Thika. Then the shoulder is very iffy. I decided to turn north late in hte day. Eventually I ended up in the small village of Gutundu. Very hilly the last 10 or 15 kilometers. Give yourself enough time. Pretty good hotel there (Oasis Hotel). |
