5 Days Mt Kenya Climbing Sirimon – Chogoria Route

Sirimon Route is much more scenic than Naromoru and it is on the drier side of the mountain which offers some of the finest walking. Climb up through forest into a wide ridge approach to the summit area. The route starts on the northwest side of the mountain near Nanyuki. Access is adequate and the bunk house facilities are the best on this side of the mountain.
Chogoria route is undeniably the most magnificent ascent route to the summit at Point Lenana Peak, 4985m. It is located on the windward side up the mountain and the walk beside the Gorges Valley truly spectacular.
