What to Expect
Mt. Kenya day trek
Our day trip is designed for the visitor who has limited time and who is not interested in reaching any of the summits. This safari is tailored to those who are interested in seeing the fascinating vegetation zones of an equatorial mountain and the associated rich animal and bird life.
Day 1
Pick up from Nairobi at 05:00hrs, drive to Sirimon gate - 01-hour drive. Check-in the Mount Kenya national park, after a few minutes of photo taking and viewing some wildlife such as bushbucks, waterbucks, baboons and bird life you drive on to the road head of the Sirimon Track, Old Moses camp -altitude 3,000m/ 10,000ft.
From the Old Moses camp on a clear day we have great views of the main peaks Batian, Nelion and Lenana, also beautiful view of the Laikipia plains and Aberdare ranges which is the second highest mountain in Kenya. Then the guide will set a leisurely pace for a relaxing trek up the mountain through different vegetations to the beginning of moorland covered by tussock grass and flowered cabbage Loberias. Along the way you will enjoy various birds and flowers on the high altitudes.
After 3 to 4 hrs of ascending you will be on top of Liki valley where we have the picnic rocks in time for lunch (3,700m). Enjoy your lunch with a good view.
