The Best Things to Do in Tigoni
Horse rides through tea fields, hidden waterfalls, forest walks and scenic cafés - a guide to the best of Tigoni, all under an hour from Nairobi.
For somewhere so close to Nairobi, Tigoni packs in a surprising amount - tea farms, waterfalls, forest trails, horse riding and some of the most scenic cafés in the country. Here are the experiences we love most.
Ride through the tea at Kawamwaki
Kawamwaki Farm is Tigoni's classic day out: guided horse rides across rolling tea fields and forest tracks, reaching hidden waterfalls, with a quiet dam to unwind beside afterwards. The horses are gentle enough for first-timers and children.
Walk the indigenous forest at Brackenhurst
Brackenhurst has spent two decades restoring indigenous forest, and the result is one of the most peaceful walks near the city - shaded trails, birdsong, and a farm café to refuel at.
Unwind at Green's Green Retreat
A family-run farm with a waterfall, a dam for kayaking and gardens made for slow afternoons - come for the day or stay over in a cottage.
Watch the sunset at Nifty
End the day at a café perched over the valley: wood-fired pizza, a cold juice or a glass of wine, and a lake sunset that's hard to leave.
