Eburru Forest Community Guides

Eburru Rafiki recommends four knowledgeable guides whom we have appointed from the local community. Each guide can lead you on various hikes to explore the forest, depending on how far you’d like to walk and the type of terrain you want to cover.

Please book guides directly and arrange your own meeting point.

Guide fee is Ksh 2,000/- payable directly to them on the day.
