Mount Kenya Climb:
Africa’s
second highest peak is a majestic monolith regarded as the sacred realm of Ngai, god of the local Kikuyu people, and home
to one of the planet’s rarest sights, Equatorial Snow. The mountain is an awe-inspiring sight. Its ragged series of
peaks are crowned with snow, and its slopes are thick with forest. The mountain is best seen at dawn, when the days early
light silhouette its impressive summit high over the surrounding plains. Any physically fit person can climb Mt. Kenya. No
climbing experience is necessary to get you to the top
