Mount Kenya

Mount Kenya, Africa’s second-highest mountain after Kilimanjaro, is one of Kenya’s most treasured landmarks. Rising to 5,199 metres, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, celebrated for its rugged beauty, unique ecosystems, and cultural significance. For travellers exploring East Africa with Kat-Moshi, Mount Kenya offers both adventure and discovery beyond the safari plains.

Adventure and Hiking Experiences

Climbing Mount Kenya is a dream for hikers and mountaineers. The mountain has three main peaks: Batian, Nelion, and Lenana. While Batian and Nelion are technical climbs for experienced climbers, Point Lenana is accessible to trekkers and rewards them with breathtaking sunrise views over the African landscape. Multiple routes, such as the Sirimon, Naro Moru, and Chogoria trails, offer different levels of challenge and scenery, from bamboo forests to high alpine meadows.

Nature and Wildlife

Beyond climbing, Mount Kenya is home to incredible biodiversity. Its forests shelter elephants, buffaloes, and colobus monkeys, while higher slopes feature unique plant species found nowhere else. Glacial valleys, sparkling tarns, and waterfalls create a setting of natural beauty that attracts both adventure seekers and nature enthusiasts. A trip to Mount Kenya with Kat-Moshi combines outdoor adventure with the chance to experience one of Africa’s most inspiring natural wonders.
