Description

Welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime experience! At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Nairobi and set off for Mount Kenya.

First, we'll travel to Nanyuki, the capital of Laikipia County. This place is the base of the Kenyan Air Force and a training area for the British Army. It will also be our starting point to climb Mount Kenya.

Upon arrival, we'll start walking from 1,980 metres (6,496 ft) to 2,650 metres (8,694 ft) through the Sirimon Gate, covering a total of 23 kilometres (14 miles) to the top of Mount Kenya.

Our hiking route will take about 3.5 hours, during which we will admire the area's vegetation, including bamboo and rosewood trees. The first stop will be at Old Moses camp, at 3,300 metres (10,826 ft) above sea level.

After resting and acclimatising, we'll continue the hike to 3,600 metres (11,811 ft) to admire the Nelion and Batian peaks. We will then begin our descent to the camp for a delicious picnic lunch, after which we will continue our descent to Sirimon Gate, where the minibus will be waiting to take us back to Nairobi.

This 13-hour tour will conclude at your hotel.
