Suswa is a shield volcano in the Great Rift Valley, Kenya. It is located between Narok and Nairobi, the capital of Kenya.
Suswa has a unique double crater with a moat-like inner crater surrounding a tilted block of rock. The mountain is also known for its lava tube caves on the northeast side of the outer crater.
It is possible to drive up the mountain into the outer crater with a four-wheel-drive vehicle, however there are numerous barricades across the trail where local Masai try to collect a fee for allowing you through. Arrangements can be made to pay a set fee and get a guide to take you past the barricades. It is also possible to climb the mountain on foot from the Suswa Primary school at the base of the mountain.
