A one-and-a-half hour drive from Maralal, through beautiful forest stretches and extensive wheat farms, one of Samburu Land’s top attractions is to be reached. Just some 15 kilometres off the Maralal Baragoi road, the Kirisia Hills are plunging into the Suguta Valley, creating the Malaso or World’s End Viewpoint. From the viewpoint, visitors enjoy a spectacular panoramic view over the steep dropoff into and across the Northern Rift Valley, up to the Cherangani Hills on the far western side of the depression. Sunsets are just stunning and the place is a paradise for landscape photographers, bird watchers and hikers. The local Samburu community who owns the land and turned it into a conservancy, offers guided walks along the breathtaking cliffs and down to the valley floor. The twohour-descend is especially worthwhile on Saturdays, when there is a traditional market being held where Pokot and Samburu trade agricultural produce and animals. On request, the community does also organise cave excursions, traditional dance performances, village visits, cultural talks with elders over bonfire and cow darting.
