Day 1:
After Breakfast, all the equipment required for your climb is sorted and organized. After a brief stop at Nanyuki for a photo opportunity at the Equatorial line, the vehicle proceeds onto the Sirimon Track as far as the Mount Kenya National Park Gate.
From here you hike 9 km up to the Old Moses Camp (3300m) for overnight in the hut. This two to three hours hike is essential for acclimatization and is also very interesting as you hike through four of the mountain vegetation belts – the tropical rain forest, bamboo jungle, rosewood, and heather zones. These are also the areas where you are most likely to see animals.
Day 2:
Your hike starts around 0700hrs going via the new Sirimon route through the beautiful and unique Alpine Moorland Zone. Walking time today is 5-7 hours depending on individual fitness and stopping halfway for a picnic lunch. You arrive at Shiptons Camp (4200m), in the late afternoon and have dinner and overnight here (in the hut)
Day 3:
A pre-dawn (3:00 am) start is essential when attempting Point Lenana. You are then most likely to be successful in reaching the summit as well as having the clearest view of the majestic scenery.
