This 2 days Mount Kenya National Park safari is specifically a climbing safari. Mount Kenya National Park was designated a national park to protect Mount Kenya and the surrounding areas. Mount Kenya is the highest mountain in Kenya and the second-highest in Africa. Hiking this wonderful mountain will teach you several life skills that are gained from climbing. If you are looking for a moderate climbing challenge, I highly recommend this safari.  We have a good mountain crew who shall ensure that you experience the best climbing along Mount Kenya. Even before coming to Kenya, we are more than available to offer our deep insights about climbing with you. Karibu to Kenya, you are highly welcome to our marvelous land- a land of heroes.

Experience the beauty of Mount Kenya on this short yet rewarding 2-day trek that starts and ends in Nairobi. Hike through lush rainforest from Sirimon Gate to Old Moses Hut (3,300 m), enjoying scenic views and the chance to spot wildlife and birds along the way. Fully supported by mountain guides and crew, this itinerary offers a perfect introduction to Mount Kenya’s highland landscapes without the full summit challenge.
