This is a short hike to Historical Mau Mau Caves located in the foothills of Mt Kenya near Nanyuki. The Mau Mau caves have stood the test of time as a solemn reminder of one the British Colonial Empire’s bloodiest war, & most significant step near the independence in Kenya.
The epic caves used to be the storage and the hideout zones for the Mau freedom fighters during the Emergency period in 1952 -1960 before Kenya became an independent country. Today the caves have a variety of attractions such as the indigenous forest full of the Columbus monkey and a variety of birdlife.
