7-Day Mount Kenya Climbing / Trek (7 Days 6 Nights)


The 7 Days Mount Kenya Climbing Sirimon–Naro Moru Route is a classic trekking expedition through the iconic peaks of Mount Kenya National Park. This well-designed itinerary combines the scenic Sirimon ascent route with the faster and more direct Naro Moru descent, offering climbers a complete mountain experience.


The Sirimon Route is widely regarded as one of the most scenic approaches to Point Lenana, featuring rich alpine vegetation, dramatic landscapes, and gradual altitude gain that supports better acclimatization. The descent via the Naro Moru Route provides a contrasting experience with its steep terrain and faster exit from the mountain.


This combination route is preferred by most professional trekking companies guiding climbers to Point Lenana (4,985m), offering both adventure and safety through balanced ascent and descent profiles.
