You step out of the minivan at the Naro Moru trailhead as cool mountain air pushes against Nairobi’s warmth. A gravel track climbs into a band of tall, wet forest; sunlight slips through moss and stands of giant lobelias tower like old sentries. The group moves deliberately—careful, curious—while the guide points out endemic birds and the pale scratch of elephant paths far below.
