SUSTAINABILITY AGENDA

This event’s goal is to bring together bikers and stakeholders in different sectors related to the tourism industry from across East Africa and the world at large while promoting social, economic and environmental sustainability of Hell’s Gate and its environs whilst increasing the awareness of Hell’s Gate National Park as the best biking and camping destination.
‘Respect Nature & Communities’ is the expression of the fundamental values of the Hell’s Gate Biking Fest. Our national park, plants and animals are our national heritage and mark our nature. Only together can we preserve our heritage, including by separating our waste and disposing of it accordingly. 
We ask your understanding that our national parks are plastic free and therefore we highly recommend you carry with you a reusable water bottle. We would also like to ask you to only dispose rubbish in the relevant bins at the event venue.
In line with the Government’s tree-planting agenda, we have a tree-planting exercise dubbed Greening Hell‘s Gate Initiative, which is aimed at planting over 1,000 trees during the event. In this year’s edition, we also aim to mobilize funds to facilitate the fencing of the planted area – to secure the young trees from wild herbivores within the park 
We love working with local communities. This is why through our Empower the Locals Initiative, we partner with the Hells Gate Community Tour Guides Association, a local group, for the provision of bicycles for hire to the participants. Additionally, selected vendors from the local community are engaged at The Festival Village to promote their businesses
Are you inspired to lead a sustainable life? We have Educational Workshops in collaboration with KWS & other partners, on topics such as sustainable living, wildlife conservation, and climate change to raise your awareness about environmental issues, and how you can make a difference
Through a partnership with Nakuru County Government, we have conducted an Environmental Impact Assessment to ensure that there will be minimal impact from the activities of Hell’s Gate Biking Fest on the park’s environment.
