5.Mt Kenya: Full-day hiking tour from Nairobi

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 10 reviews · 1 day · from $255Best value

Travel from Nairobi to Mount Kenya National Park for a guided hike from Siri Moni Gate toward the Meteorological Station and Old Mosses Camp. Guides such as Frank and Joseph lead the walk, while drivers including Meshak and Birshak handle the long road journey.

“Ich wurde zwar mit nur 10 Minuten Verspätung abgeholt, doch dann mussten wir erst tanken fahren. Anstatt um 8 Uhr kamen wir um 10 Uhr am Nationalpark an. Ich hatte dann 4 Stunden um etwas zu wandern, allerdings nur einen ausgebauten Weg hoch. Ein Tipp: sich zum old Moses Camp fahren lassen und dort starten. Allerdings ist man da auch schon auf 3300m Höhe. Um 14 Uhr ging es dann in der 5 ständigen Fahrt zurück nach Nairobi. Es gab weder das Lunchpaket noch Wasser. 10 Stunden Fahrt für 4 Stunden Mount Kenya lohnt sich nicht, besser 2 Tage einplanen.”
