Large, prominent boulder face on the hills behind Kisumu Prison. Spot it from the road leaving Kisumu past the airport on the way to Busia. At far right end of the rocky outcrops. Take the right turn to the prison and continue to the guards' gate. Continue into the prison toward the rocks past the hospital. Park in an open field. Take Goat trails through some bushes to get to the rock. Route starts to the far right of the obvious face. Climb crimpy holds up and to the right to reach the arete. Follow the easy arete to the top.Descent Options:
