Mount Kenya (5,199 m) is Kenya's roof and Africa's second-highest mountain. The summit pyramid offers four classic route combinations across two main ascent ridges — Sirimon and Naro Moru — typically descended via Chogoria for the most scenic return. Whether you choose the gentle 4-day Sirimon circuit or the more intensive 5-day Naro Moru–Chogoria traverse, every itinerary includes hut or tented accommodation, expert local guides, and the satisfaction of standing atop the jagged peaks of Point Lenana and Batian.
