Thompson's Falls, nestled in Nyahururu town, along the Ewaso Ng'iro River on the far northern end of the Aberdare Ranges captivates hearts with its timeless allure. Here, cascading waters dance with ethereal grace, serenading the senses and inspiring the soul.

A symphony of water gracefully plunges amidst lush greenery, casting a mesmerizing spell on those who venture here as the radiant sun paints vibrant rainbows upon its misty canvas. Thompson's Falls is indeed where love and beauty converge. It is an invitation to immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring embrace of this earthly paradise.

Some even say romance finds its perfect melody here. Others are convinced beyond a doubt that the Falls provide the backdrop to their greatest love story ever. Yet truth be told, it has, not once or twice, served in equal measure as the last destination for many commonfolk and even clergy who, driven by a strong conviction that its 74m descent provided a perfect exit from this life to the next, plunged to their untimely deaths. May this never be the reason for your visit.

While muggings and theft no longer seem to dominate the site, being in a group helps. Some very knowledgeable guides are on standby to assist, at a fee, of course. Take some time to explore the colourful curio shops selling beautiful handicrafts and art. It means a lot to them, especially in these tough economic times. So whether you prefer to call it Thompson's, Thomson's, Thomson, Thompson or Nyahururu Falls, the effect this masterpiece of nature has on you remains a tale etched in your hearts for a long time to come. Does anyone know of another waterfall in the world this close to...
