Overview
Nested to the north of Kahunira trail, this new discovery leads us to a major water conservation dam, Ruiru which supplies water to the city residents. A trek around is not only breathtaking but fascinating. After numerous up & downs as we bushwhack our way, we’ll be treated to a refreshing waterfall towards the end. Here you can immerse yourself and feel the soothing cold waters over your body. Adjacent to it, under the trees you can hang a hammock and enjoy the chirping birds.
