Countries Visited
Kenya
Trek Overview
Mount Kenya is Kenya's highest mountain and Africa's second highest after Kilimanjaro. The mountain has three peaks, of which Point Lenana is the highest peak accessible to trekkers at 4,985 metres. This trek ascends via the Sirimon route and descends via the Chogoria route which makes the trek very varied. These are two of the most scenic routes on the mountain. The Sirimon approaches from the west and is the longest route, although the most gentle. It is noted for its fantastic glacial scenery. Descent is on the east of the mountain on the Chogoria Route - again, not the fastest route but is favoured for its stunning scenery, including waterfalls, gorges and tarns.
