This route is more picturesque than Naromoru and is located on the mountain’s dry side, providing some of the best hiking experiences. Ascend through the forest to reach a broad ridge leading to the summit area. The journey begins on the mountain’s northwest side, close to Nanyuki. Access is convenient, and the bunkhouse facilities are the finest on this side of the mountain.
