Overview
Mount Kenya is the highest mountain in Kenya and the second-highest after Mount Kilimanjaro, and climbing Mount Kenya is an experience of a lifetime. For all the fitness & hiking enthusiasts this is an opportunity to challenge your body. Sweat through, stretch your muscles, and move towards flexibility.
The hike begins at Old Moses Camp, a 20-minute drive or a 2-3 hours hike from Mount Kenya National Park, Sirimon Gate. On the drive to the camp, you get a good view of 2 of Mount Kenya’s highest peaks – Batian and Nelion.Â
Old Moses Camp is a nice place to chill and relax with a quick getaway from the city. Wow yourself with lots of bird watching and amazing views of the Mount Kenya valleys with plenty of birds – if you like bird watching.
Old Moses Camp is usually the first stop for hikers/trekkers who are trekking to the summit.
