Africa Climbing;climb Mt. Kenya the Africa's second Highest peak. It is one of the East Africa Mountains that passes along the equator. Naro Moru route


Naro Moru route is the quickest way to the base of the mountain and Pt. Lenana. It is also one of the steepest routes and extra care should be taken here to avoid problems with AMS. Walking up towards Mackinders Camp through the Teleki Valley offers superb views of the peaks of Batian and Nelion.
