Climbing mount kenya

 

Climbing mount kenya | trekking mount kenya | hikking mount kenya
Mount Kenya is located on the equator. Magnificent cliffs and glaciers protect the highest peaks of Nelion (5188m) and Batian (5199m). The third mount kenya highest summit - Point Lenana, (4985m) - is also glaciated but accessible to walkers. Tarns and alpine meadows; exotic, equatorial, high-altitude vegetation; sunbirds, hyrax and soaring eagles make the walk around the mount kenya peaks one of the most beautiful expeditions in the East African mountains. On account of the high altitudes it is wise not to rush to the mount kenya summit areas and the very shortest trip to Lenana should allow for 3 nights on the mountain. To combine this ascent with a circumnavigation of the main peaks requires at least an extra day. mount kenya

Lying on the equator Mount Kenya is affected by the passage of the Intertropical Convergence Zone, which brings with it the main rainy periods. The highest rainfall at mount kenya occurs between late March and the middle of May, and slightly less between late October and mid December. Maximum rainfall at mount kenya occurs in the forest belt and on the south-east side of the mount kenya where it reaches 2500mm. per year at 3000m. Precipitation decreases with altitude and is about 700mm. per year at 4500m. Rain and, higher up, snow can however be encountered at any time of year - even in the driest periods (January and February). Normally the drier seasons are associated with clear, dry weather which can last for many days on end. The best weather is generally in the mornings, and convectional rainfall, if any, tends to come in the mid-afternoon.
