Mount Kenya Climbing and Trekking
Any physically
fit person can climb Mt. Kenya. No climbing experience is necessary
to get you to the top of Kenya's highest Mountain (5,199M) with its
magnificent gleaming glaciers, Flora & Fauna.
Weather
Mt Kenya can and is climbed at all times of the year. If possible
however, it is best to avoid the two rainy seasons that may start in
mid March and last through till mid June, the long rains, and from
the late October through till end of November, the short rains. The
driest times on the mountain are usually January till mid March and
again July through mid October.
