Introduction

Experience the Mount Kenya National Park trek to Point Lenana (4,985m/17,058ft), the hikers’ summit. Starting from Nanyuki Town, the climb follows the northwest side of the mountain through lush rainforest and scenic moorlands. Overnight stays at Old Moses Camp and Shipton’s Camp provide acclimatization before the third‑day summit push. This route, on the drier side of Mount Kenya, offers some of the finest walking and panoramic views, making it one of the most rewarding trekking adventures in East Africa.

Highlights

Mount Kenya

Day 1

Mount Kenya

You've been dreaming of your safari for so long and now it's finally about to begin. You'll meet your guide who will tell you everything you need to know to get your safari started. We're as excited as you are to get your trip underway.

You'll find it difficult to take your eyes off Mount Kenya (5199m), which is Africa's second-highest mountain and possibly its most beautiful. The mountain is also sacred to the local Kikuyu people.

Accommodation Day 1

Judmaier Campsite

Mountain hut

You'll sleep at Old Moses Mountain Camp, at an altitude of 3300m, high on Mt Kenya. As you'd expect up here, there's simple dorm accommodation with bunk beds, a camping area and a communal dining hall. A high plateau surrounds you with sweeping views, and you'll be able to swap climbing stories with the other travelers who pass through here.

Accommodation Day 2

Shipton Campsite

Mountain hut

Up here, in a valley high on Mt Kenya, Shipton's Hut (4200m) is a terrific place to meet other climbers: there's a real sense of camaraderie among those who make it this far. Simple beds and cold showers are one thing, but up here it's all about enjoying summit views, admiring the unique local flora and swapping stories of your climb.
