KINALE FOREST

Kinale Forest, set at Lari, is one of the surpassing roadside attractions between Nairobi and Naivasha – alongside the memorable view of the Great Rift Valley near Limuru. This forest forms the lower sections of Nyandarua Forest, more proper Aberdare Forest. The unusually reposeful forest – a classic lovers patch – is best known for the symmetry of its slender softwood planted forest and its evergreen carpet of trim indigenous grass. Kinale Forest is also a photographers paradise owing to the play of light on the trees and its pretty symmetry. If the roadside lure of Kinale becomes irresistible, it is perfectly okay to drop-in at the forest and enjoy a few fleeting moments wandering it on foot. There is no cover charge for entering Kinale Forest. It is found at Lari about 61 kms from Nairobi.
