Highlights
Get ready for one of the best treks in Africa! Embark on this amazing journey to climb Africa’s second highest mountain - Mount Kenya. Hike via the scenic Sirimon Route and enjoy a stunning sunrise at Point Lenana, the “trekkers’ summit”. Pack your bags now, ready your gears, and experience the best adventure in Mount Kenya.
You will take the trek through Sirimon Route and it is like no other. It provides trekkers the opportunity of experiencing an easier and shorter trek than Naromoru while still experiencing the all beauty of the surroundings as they pass through the drier side of the mountain.
The route begins in the northwest and passes through the forest to reach the summit area. There is adequate access to the area and bunk housing facilities are best on this side of the mountain.
