Main Info
The hike on Mt Longonot takes between 3-5 hours depending on pace and fitness. The hike from the gate to the crater rim is 3.1km in length but the height gain is rapid and this makes for a stiff climb. One can also decide to circumnavigate the crater rim which is a distance of 7.2km. The hiking trail is provided with some rest points but it is narrow, especially on the crater rim.
The total length of the hike up, around the crater rim, and back is 10.3km through some narrow paths and treacherously steep inclines.
