STSMKEC 003 - 5 Days Naro Moru Route

Day 2
At midday, drive to the roadhead of the Naro Moru track from where you will hike up to the Met Station approximately 2 kms distance. - sleeping at an altitude of about 10,000 feet, zero degree latitude Equator. The mountain above 9500 feet forms the Mount Kenya National Park and is a World Heritage Site. Night at Met Station.
Day 3
The hike up into the Teleki Valley to the Mackinder's Camp. From the Met Station the trek will be through a wide swath of deep bog, and in the event of rain (which is likely), the going will be even slower. The hike today will be 5 to 7 hours. Overnight at Teleki Valley (13,900 ft).
Day 4
An early pre-dawn start is scheduled to ensure a summit bid in time for the majestic summit scenery at dawn. Although not of a technical nature, the hike to the third highest peak of Mount Kenya (Point Lenana at 16,355 ft) is physically strenuous. The track involves approximately a kilometer hike up the valley, crossing several small rock outcrops and a swampy area before starting the scree ascent to Point Lenana. Return to the base camp and proceed down the mountain to the Lodge.
Day 5
After breakfast transfer back to Nairobi or continue on safari.
