Mount Kenya Mountain Expeditions

For succeswful rock climbing  relies on your own skills and experience as well as those of the guide. Therefore it is important that you fully understand the hazards and are confident that you have the relevant skills and experience to help control the risks.

When to do Rock  climb at Mt Kenya

The North Face routes on Mount Kenya are usually climbed during the northern hemisphere’s summer (June through to August although September and early October could be a possibility too). As the mountain is on the equator the sun will be slightly to the North of the mountain during these months. This means that there is less snow and ice, making climbing easier, with some sun on you and warmer rock.

The rainy seasons in Kenya are usually April, May and October/November. If you would like to climb in the December – March season then We use via the South East Face where it is possible to summit Nelion on the south-east face and Batian via the Gates of Mist.
