Karura forest has always been a part of Nairobi that I enjoy going to. Located in the periphery of Nairobi City, Karura forest is a 20-minute drive from the Nairobi CBD and can be accessed from two gates, one along Kiambu Road and the other along Limuru Road. For Kenyan citizens, the Friends of Karura who manage the forest charge an entry fee of Sh100 for adults and Sh50 for children. For citizens who are classified as non-citizens living in Kenya, the forest entrance fee is Sh200 for adults and Sh100 for children. Given that I had not been in Karura for more than a year, it was interesting to see how much the forest had expanded.
