Overview
Climb Africa’s second-highest peak on this 4-day Mount Kenya trek via the Sirimon Route. This adventure combines alpine landscapes, diverse ecosystems, and the thrill of summiting Point Lenana (4,985m) at sunrise.
Your journey begins in Nairobi and takes you through lush rainforest, moorlands, glacial valleys, and rugged alpine terrain. Along the way, you’ll encounter unique high-altitude plants, striking rock formations, and—on a clear day—breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro in the distance.
