The vast bulk of the snow capped
Mt. Kenya looms over the entire region of the
central Kenya. The mountain is part of the central
highlands. It is the highest mountain in Kenya
and in Africa after the Mt. Kilimanjaro.
For hikers, point Lenana at
4,895 m is the destination. This is accessed
from different routes depending on your availability
of time, budget and hiking experience. The view
en-route, the physical exertion and the rough
climbing experience combine to bring out a well-deserved
sense of accomplishment to the climbers. We
undertake Mt. Kenya climbing expeditions on
all routes. Two of the most popular routes have
been described here.
