Mt. Kenya 4-Day Sirimon–Sirimon Hut Hike

1 Day

Certified guides

Route: Sirimon → Sirimon. Using the same route for entry and exit is the easiest way to summit Point Lenana — you cover less distance and stay in mountain huts, though you miss the dramatic Chogoria valleys.

A great pick for hikers who want the summit experience over a long weekend, or as a training expedition before attempting Kilimanjaro.

Trip highlights

  • Moderate Sirimon route both ways
  • Lenana peak (4,985 m) sunrise summit
  • Hut accommodation throughout
  • Great long-weekend expedition
  • Kilimanjaro training option
