Ondiri swamp is located in Kikuyu next to the southern bypass, it is where the Nairobi river starts and has guides who can give you a brief history of the swamp.

The swamp has been in existence as has been synonymous since the colonial era. It has provided the region with a nice ecosystem with the water serving hundreds of people for years. However, there is no proper governmental institution caring for the swamp, making it slowly degrade and disappear

A real conservation success!

This a very nice place to relax, and enjoy with friends. Let all protect our environment.

Scary

Important wetland ecosystem that needs our support.

We had a beautiful afternoon, with the locals appreciating this resource.

It's the second largest covered water body in Africa. Soo much to see.

The swamp is just that, a swamp, but the surrounding neighborhood was very beautiful, green mature trees, a very tranqui silence and decent all weather roads. A very ideal place for a home.

Nice views especially at sunset

It was exciting and has a cool atmosphere

The swamp is about 1/2 Km from Kikuyu town. It provides water to the town and is also used for irrigation around it's hinterland. It is also a tourist attraction with various kinds of birds.

Such a good experience swaying over pit soil 🥳🥳

Plenty of bird species.

My geography teacher told me that beneath the swamp is a big river whose source is lake Naivasha moving eastwards ending up into the Indian Ocean.

It has a very beautiful scene with also many species of birds
