About Mount Kenya


Mount Kenya (5199m) is Kenya's highest and Africa's second It's snow capped peaks can be seen for kilometers, Its so large that the Kikuyu deified it, building their houses with doors facing the peak. Hence, it was never scaled until the European explorers arrived. Trekkers mainly visit mid Jan to late Feb or late Aug to September. The highest peaks, Batian and Nelion, can only be reached by mountaineers. Trekkers can reach the third highest, Point Lenana (4985 m). Stunning views. Beware of ascending too quickly which can cause altitude sickness.
