Awe is described as the sensation of being in the presence of something enormous that is beyond your present comprehension of the world. It’s that exhilarating feeling you get when standing under the canopy of a giant tree. It’s that silent thrill you experience when staring at the star studded skies above. Or when watching an ocean spread to where the land meets the sky.
Awe poignantly reminds us about our own smallness, and conversely, about the infiniteness of the universe. In short, awe draws us closer to the Divine.
Mountains are one of the best ways to experience awe. The higher you go, the smaller you feel, and the bigger the world becomes. Up in those rarified heights, one’s spirit becomes free as the mountain breeze, and the universe reveals itself to those who seek it in the mountains.
At Aberdares Bongo Eco Lodge in Murang’a County, awe awaits. Nestled in the serene Gatare Forest at the foothills of the Aberdares Ranges, this haven is home to the endangered mountain bongo. Here, as the sun rises from the East, the majestic Satima Peak towers ahead, kissing the sky. The air is quite rarified and the place so elevated that you can whisper a prayer and wait for the reply.
Aberdares Bongo Eco Lodge maybe the home of the bongo. You could also call it the home of awesome views.
