Chebloch Gorge

Carved by the force of the Kerio River along the boundary of Elgeyo Marakwet and Baringo Counties, Chebloch Gorge is one of Kenya's most dramatic natural formations — a 71-metre-deep, 3-metre-wide gulch of jagged, spire-like rocks sculpted over centuries by the river's relentless current.

The gorge's most unforgettable spectacle is its fearless local divers, who plunge a breathtaking 70 metres through the narrow channel into the river below — making light work of one of the most daring leaps you'll ever witness. A must-see for thrill-seekers and nature lovers alike. Note: the rocks at the rim are slippery, so tread carefully.
