Mount Kenya Climbing Expeditions

Climb up Africa’s second tallest mountain, towering at a peak of 5199 meters above sea level. Mount Kenya is a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring 12 remnant glaciers on the mountain, all receding rapidly, and four secondary peaks that sit at the head of the U-shaped glacial valleys. With its rugged glacier-clad summits and forested middle slopes, Mount Kenya is one of the most impressive landscapes in East Africa.

Mount Kenya includes three magnificent peaks namely Nelion (5 188 m), Lenana (4 985 m), and Batian (5 199 m), all of which offer various degrees of difficulty when it comes to Mount Kenya climbing, trekking and hiking tours. There are about 20 glacial tarns (small lakes) of varying sizes and numerous glacial moraine features between 3,950 m and 4,800 m asl.
