Outlying foothills that are much lower than the main peaks but still enjoyable to hike up are Kipkunurr (3063m), Koisungur (3167m) and Kipteberr (2774m).
Kipkunurr is prominently visible from Kapsowar but best approached from Cheptongei. It is an easy 2-hour hike to reach the summit that tops sheer South East – facing cliffs.
Kipteberr which lies exactly on the Marakwet -Pokot border is easier still. Leave your car at Kipteberr Pri. School, 9 km beyond Kapcherop, and hike up the hill in 40 minutes. It gives fine views across Trans Nzoia to the looming mass of Mt. Elgon. Ask the locals about the many legends relating to this hill.
Koisungur lies just to the west of the D329 between Kimnai and Makutano. One can drive to its summit by taking a steep service road (accessing the antennae on its top) 3 km before Makutano. But, the better alternative is the nice, 40-minute walk that can be enjoyed by leaving the car 2½ km further downhill and scrambling up the clearly defined, white, rocky ridge. Views from the top are like those of Kipteberr —- in fact, Kipteberr itself is clearly visible 11 km away and 400m lower).
