Mount Kenya is the second tallest mountain in Africa. The view enveloping this designated World Heritage Site is breathtaking. It is a fresh wilderness with lakes, tarns, glaciers, forests, mineral springs, and a selection of rare and endangered species of animals, birds, and vegetation. The park is located 175 km from Nairobi. It can be reached using Nanyuki-Isiolo road via Sirimon Track or Nyeri-Nanyuki road near Naro Moru. The park is also reachable via Chogoria on the Embu – Meru road, about 150km north of Nairobi. I visited the park with my friends and had one of the best days ever. The park is clean, and the tour guides are professional and willing to answer all the questions you have. Tourists can enjoy mountain climbing, camping, and caving, with the mountain’s peaks providing an excellent background.
