Depart Mountain Rock Lodge after an early breakfast and drive to the Sirimon Park Gate (2,600m), crossing the equator en route. From the park gate, hike for 3 hours through the forested foothills of Mt Kenya and into the alpine heath to reach Old Moses Camp (3,300m), where we pitch camp for the night. During this initial trek through Mt Kenya’s forested lowlands you can hope to see a mix of wildlife, such as forest elephant and zebra.
