Overview
Mount Kenya is its own National Park with a stunning landscape of interesting endemic flora, jagged summit peaks and glaciers. 7:30AM Pick up. Differs from Kilimanjaro in that there is more wildlife to be spotted, as well as numerous high tarns and traditional higher peaks! For many it is a much more scenic and peaceful experience with much fewer numbers and smaller teams ascending the mountain, many have been up and down without meeting anyone other than the Kenya Wildlife Service staff at the Park Gates and the camps.
Experience epic journey to be experienced rather than taken, accommodating, transportation and in person guide. A trip for highlands nature lover who cannot hike, trek, or climb in high altitude or the people who really loves mountains but does not have enough time to do it. The only mountain seat exactly at equator and see it live. Solo travelers can join existing groups.
