We also have a variety of mountain treks in Kenya and Tanzania
Mt. Kenya Treks
Mount Kenya
The mountain is located 180 kilometers north of Nairobi and it can often be seen from high-rise buildings in Nairobi and from Thika. It is an extinct volcano, which formed a couple of million years ago. The mountain is located in the Mount Kenya National Park, which is a designated protected area around the mountain above 3200m altitude.
Mount Kenya
Mount Kenya, also known for its almost regular afternoon showers is easily accessible from Nairobi, the central city of Kenya. It is every adventurer's paradise with fine routes to test each climber. You do not need to be a professional climber to enjoy the scenes of Mount Kenya, but You need to be physically fit, and the climb is well worth it. Batian and Nelion can only be reached by professional climbers with technical skill. It is point Lenana, third highest point that is the target for most climbers as no technical skill needed.
The trekkers need to be accompanied by a trekking guide or someone who have been there before and with proper knowledge of the tracks. This is not compulsory, but it is not unknown for ill prepared trekkers to get lost on the mountain. Sometimes the results are fatal. Though lone trekkers venture into the mountain, it’s a risk not worth taking.

In addition to the lovely sceneries of Mount Kenya, adventurers will find themselves face to face with the shy Sykes monkeys, lots of different plant species or occasional buffalo crossing the track a couple of meters ahead of you.
You will not miss the chirping of birds in early morning especially on the lower points, the bronze colored sunbirds hopper between lobelia and groundsels in search of nectar just in front of you undisturbed by your presence.
There are several bandas (huts) located in the different heights which are the recommended locations for spending the night. They provide shade from the evening rains and the cold night winds.
When the evening sets in, the cook prepares hot vegetable soups or steaming tea to warm you up while you relax or walk around the camp waiting for the darkness to turn pitch-black.
