Elephant Hill Hike is approximately 9 kilometers k stretch from the starting point to the summit and back, making a total of approximately 18 kilometers. The first stop is at the starting point, followed by the bamboo gate, then there is the point of despair, the tail, and the summit, which overlooks Mt. Kinangop. Elephant Hill is situated west of Mt Kenya in the central highlands between Nyeri and Naivasha.
