Description Suggest change

Kipwa is a cluster of formations in an out of the way location that offers some of the most exciting and high-quality new route possibilities in Kenya. Giant domes and boulders are ripe for brilliant sport routes, and splitter cracks of all sizes and lengths make for challenging trad climbs. Many of the formations have likely never been climbed, and what few routes do exist make for great "cragging".

Getting There Suggest change

From the road, expect 20 min to an hour's walk depending on where you go. See access note and contact MCK for details on how to get there.
