Mit den zerklüfteten, von Gletschern bedeckten Gipfeln und den bewaldeten Mittelhängen als Kulisse führen Sie die Mount Kenya Trekkingtouren zu einer der beeindruckendsten Landschaften Ostafrikas. Der Mount Kenya ist der zweithöchste Berg Afrikas. Er ist ein alter, erloschener Vulkan, von dem man annimmt, dass er während seiner aktiven Zeit bis zu 6.500 m hoch war. Auf dem Mount Kenya gibt es 12 verbliebene Gletscher, die sich alle schnell zurückziehen, und vier Nebengipfel, die an der Spitze der u-förmigen Gletschertäler liegen.
In the morning, you will depart Nairobi on a shared shuttle accompanied by our mountain guide arriving at Nanyuki in time for lunch. For the rest of the afternoon, you will spend time in Nanyuki acclimatizing and walking along the Mount Kenya region visiting the Mau Mau Caves, where freedom fighters used to hide during the 2nd world war.
Dinner and your overnight stay will be at a hotel in Nanyuki
