4 Days Mt Kenya Climb: Breathtaking Experience Through Chogoria and Sirimon Route
4.6

Chogoria

There’s a substantial argument that the Chogoria route is the most majestic climb to the peak. However, it’s not the most arid trail up the mountain. The trek next to the Gorges Valley is genuinely breathtaking. Throughout the hike, every night’s lodging involves camping on the mountain.

Duration: 4 days
Cancellation: 1 day learn more
Highlights
  • Mount Kenya National Park - The Chogoria route is arguably the most magnificent ascent route to the summit area. It is not the driest route though up the mountain. The walk beside the Gorges Valley truly spectacular. Accommodation on this hike is camping on all nights on the mountain

Guided trek on Mt. Kenya - This trek was fully accommodated, porters, a chef and a guide. The trek itself was incredible and I highly recommend. James was wonderful at coordinating the trip and very accommodating with plan changing, budget, gear, and transportation. The team was wonderful as well. They all were working hard to ensure that I submitted and made it down safely. Archtrek made it easy to experience Mt. Kenya which is all I could have asked for. Thank you!

Perfect trek - Beautiful scenery, slow and steady pace that allowed us to acclimate, friendly and knowledgeable guide, tasty and plentiful food. James, the owner, was super helpful in providing the gear we lacked to ensure our trek was a success.

The best experience so far, always dreaming to go back to the mountain 🏔️🌄 - The coach Mr James was so patient with me especially being a special person with a history of cancer. I'm a survivor of cervical cancer and Yes,I made it to the summit. Not once but twice. And to Kili in Tanzania too.

Excellent Mt Kenya hike experience - I would very much recommend Arch Treks & Safaris as a tour operator for the Mount Kenya hike. We did a 4-day hike (Chogoria up Sirimon down) which was organized perfectly. The communication and information up front, both on their website and from the owner James, was very clear and extensive. Our guide Samson was extremely knowledgeable, cared for us constantly and explained the day to day program well. Chef Charles spoiled us with tasty, nutritious and more than plenty of food. Moses and George were there to back us up and assist us in every way. The organization has many many years of experience which comes to expression in the way our hike was arranged. Simply a top notch service from Arch.

Couldn't have asked for a better team - We had the most amazing 4-day trek to the top of Mt. Kenya with James and his team. The guides, porters, and cook who took us up and down the mountain were phenomenal, making it as comfortable for us as possible and providing tips and guidance along the way. I personally was very impacted by altitude sickness and our main guide attended to me, making sure I was okay, encouraging me, and changing our route slightly so I could get to lower altitude faster. He was monitoring me to make sure I was okay to get to the top, and at the end was with me every step of the way to ensure I could make it. James is one of the most patient, understanding, and personable people I've ever met. He went above and beyond to help transport some other family members on our way to the mountain by renting an bigger van for us. He also went out of his way to make sure we could drop our bags with family members in another town. And when we finished our trek he called his contacts and drove to multiple towns to help us find a covid test because my husband had a cough, offered to go to a supermarket to get supplies before the next leg of our trip, and bore with is when we changed our minds several times about where to be dropped off -- even helping to jumpstart someone's car along the way! Cannot thank you enough, James + Archtrek!

Climb with Arch Treks & Safaris - Excellent group of guys with decades of experience on the mountain--expert guides who can claim upwards of 100+ hikes to the highest peaks on the continent, who've mastered knowledge of the land, topography, plant life, and the history of such beautiful landscapes. James and his guys aim to help you finish well and they are some of the most upright, kind, lighthearted folks you'll meet. Samson, Charles, and Gitonga--grateful to have gone with such a team. Soli Deo Gloria!

If you travelling to Kenya in future consider climbing Chogoria route up and out Sirimon route I highly recommend Arch Trek & Safari for Kenya adventures
