MOUNT KENYA
Situated at the central part of Kenya and neighboring the
Aberdares, Mt. Kenya is the second highest peak in Africa. This
mountain was regarded as ‘sacred’ in the ancient days and the
Kikuyu community conducted their prayers facing it.
Unlike Kilimanjaro, Mt. Kenya is mainly wet at most times of the
year but this does not inconvenience climbers. The vegetation here
varies from red hot poker , Scenecio Kinesis to Carduus Kinesis
and Ostrich Prum Lobelia at different altitudes. In our continued
efforts to render better and more unique services to our
customers, we are offering another rather strikingly unique route
on Mt. Kenya passing round the main peaks and crossing point
Lenana (4590m).
Besides the Sirimon route, our other tracks, are away from the
main tourist routes. You have the choice of the Timau or Kamweti
approach for the ascend. while you can opt to descend through the
most scenic route, the ‘Chogoria route’.
Mt. Kenya is an ideal preparation for a Mt. Kilimanjaro climb in
an environment with spectacular views plus a unique flora and
fauna
