Mount Kenya is a premier hiking and trekking destination in Kenya and the second-highest mountain in Africa. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it offers a variety of guided trekking routes, from the scenic Sirimon and Naro Moru trails to the more technical ascents of Point Lenana, Batian, and Nelion. As you hike through alpine meadows, bamboo forests, and glacier-carved valleys, enjoy encounters with unique highland wildlife such as sunbirds, mountain hyraxes, and even the elusive leopard.
Adventure seekers can combine their Mount Kenya expedition with visits to the nearby Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy, home to endangered species like the rare mountain bongo antelope. For an exclusive safari experience, explore Solio Ranch, a private wildlife sanctuary between Mount Kenya and the Aberdares, renowned for black and white rhino conservation and game drives with sightings of lions, zebras, buffalos, and antelope species.
