Overview

The inspiration for animators of Disney’sThe Lion King, Hell’s Gate National Park covers roughly 26 square miles (68.25 square kilometers). Named for a gap in the red-tinged cliffs carved by the flowing waters of a prehistoric lake, it’s the only park in East Africa in which you can get out of your safari vehicle and hike freely. Riding a bicycle in the park while viewing wildlife in their natural habitat as well as walking along the gorge is something you can't miss in hell's gate. Riding a boat on lake naivasha not only relux you from the lake breezes but also an opportunity to see thousands of hippos and bird species.

Great Day Trip

Published on Feb, 2025

We had an amazing trip to Hells Gate and Lake Naivasha. Our driver Calvin was very kind and took care of us during our transportation to and from Nairobi. We first stopped at a lookout for Mount Logonot and got some great photos. Hells Gate was beautiful we saw a variety of wildlife and enjoyed the bike ride and hike. Sammy was an amazing guide and very knowledgeable. The boat ride at Lake Naivasha was beautiful and relaxing. Calvin took us to a nice place for lunch as well before heading home. We would highly recommend this day trip to see two beautiful sites especially if you’re limited on time.

Adventurous alternative to a typical safari

Published on Feb, 2025

This is definitely something different to do rather than a traditional safari. You see so many animals plus a little adventure. Calvin was great. He was punctual and courteous. His car is very comfortable for the 2 hour drive from Nairobi to Hell’s Gate. Once at Hell’s Gate, we met our park guide who took us on a 8Km bike ride through the park to the gorge. The bike ride was fairly easy and very cool to see animals while not in a jeep. The hike through the gorge was another different aspect of the day. When it was time to bike the 8Km back, we thought it too hot and Calvin was gracious enough to come pick us up in the park. From the park we took a boat tour of Lake Naviasha. This was my favorite part of the day. The boat ride was relaxing and we spotted various birds and animals on crescent island. There were hippos out of the water grazing and sunning as well as zebras, gazelle, buffalo and many others. Don’t forget that you do end up tipping the bike guide, the boat guide as well as Calvin so be sure to plan that. They all deserved a good tip. The biggest tip is to get your ticket for Hell’s Gate with the bike the day before to cut time upon arrival on the Kenya ecitizen website. This can be a bit of a confusing process so it’s best to take the time before you are there. Also, make sure your pop-ups are not blocked in your settings otherwise you will not be able to process the payment.

The trip to Hell's Gates...

Published on Jan, 2025

The trip to Hell's Gates National Park trip was truly breathtaking. The bike ride truly nothing like I have ever experienced before and I was able to ride next to so many amazing animals! I high recommend this tour. The boat ride on Lake Naivasha was also so beautiful and it was amazing seeing both land and water animals cohabit the same environment!

Great driver and host!
