Sirimon Route

The Sirimon Route is considered one of the shorter and easier routes up Mount Kenya. Most stretches are less steep than on other routes, making it suitable for various fitness levels and ideal for families and friends of all ages. The route offers beautiful landscapes, hiking through picturesque Mackinder’s Valley with impressive mountain views at Shipton’s Camp.

Chogoria Route

The Chogoria Route is perhaps the most iconic of Mount Kenya’s trekking routes. Starting on the eastern side, the trail takes you through forest, sweeping moorland, and past lakes and rivers on the way up to Point Lenana. Longer and less traveled than other routes, it offers excellent acclimatization in a magical wilderness setting.
