5 Days Mount Kenya Climb

Enjoy a scenic journey with the 5-day Mount Kenya trek, which takes you through the Sirimon route and descends the magnificent Chogoria route. The Sirimon route is 15 km northeast of Nanyuki and has the most gradual incline among the three main routes heading to the peak, making it suitable for acclimatization. It only has a few steep areas; hence, it is considered the least challenging route. Chogoria is arguably the most scenic route. It has incredible features such as the spectacular Temple cliffs, the breathtaking Lake Ellis with amazing views of Mugi hills, the Giant's Billiards table, Lake Michaelson, Nithi Falls, and Gorges Valley. Join this incredible hike and discover the region's unique landscapes. The best time to climb Mount Kenya is during the dry months of January, February, late August, September, and October. Mount Kenya is a circular, large symmetrical volcano cone with a base diameter of about 12 km. It has three peaks: Batian (5,199 m), Nelion (5,188m), and Point Lenana (4,985m).

The Perfect Reset After Shadowing: How International Medical Aid Combined Big Five Adventure with Meaningful Cultural Immersion

December 21, 2025by: Samantha Aldridge - United StatesProgram: Group & Student Travel | IMA Safaris Africa & South America

My experience on the Masai Mara Game Reserve and Nairobi Overnight Trek was one of the most unforgettable highlights of my time in Kenya with International Medical Aid. It was a perfect combination of adventure, cultural immersion, and relaxation after intense clinical shadowing. The overall itinerary was well thought out and offered a great balance between travel, exploration, and rest. The progression, from the drive to Masai Mara, the game drives, cultural interactions, and the overnight stay in Nairobi allowed us to experience a diverse range of Kenyan landscapes, wildlife, and local traditions. Everything felt well-coordinated and paced, without being rushed. Transportation was smooth and reliable throughout the trek. The safari vehicles were clean, spacious, and perfect for wildlife viewing, with pop-up roofs that made the experience even more immersive. Our driver-guide was incredibly skilled, both in navigating the terrain and spotting wildlife. The long drives were made enjoyable through engaging commentary and beautiful scenery. The transfer between Nairobi and Masai Mara, though long, was comfortable, and our drivers ensured we had adequate rest stops and water throughout the journey. Our guide in Masai Mara was phenomenal. His knowledge of the ecosystem, animal behavior, and Masai culture added so much depth to the trip. He made an effort to ensure everyone had a great view during game drives and was always open to questions. We saw all the "Big Five," along with countless other animals like giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and even a leopard sighting, something I’ll never forget. The visit to a traditional Maasai village was another highlight. It felt authentic, respectful, and educational. We were welcomed with open arms and learned about Maasai customs, daily life, and their close relationship with nature.
