Today my roommate and I met up with 5 other volunteers to conquer the Mount Longonot volcano. We began the hike thinking oh it’s only a few miles, how hard can it be? Boy were we wrong! It turned out to be one of the hardest hikes I’ve done. It was a straight up vertical walk and even climb at some points! Not to mention the trail was all sand so we were breathing in constant dust and at the finish we were COVERED in layers of dirt and dust. The views overlooking the entire Great Rift Valley and volcano crater were worth the effort though! Plus, not everyone can say they’ve summited a volcano in Africa!
