Below is a brief description of the trail...
We depart from Nairobi at 4.00am and drive to Naromoru Park Gate (2600m) for registration and drive to Met Station where our hike will start at 3000m. After stretching we head uphill on the track past the radio must. The trek runs into a path and after another 30 minutes we will reach the end of the forest belt and enter the moorland. This is the vertical bog conditions ranging from damp to glutinous depending on when it last rained. We continue through the moorlands until the trek improves and we reach a fork overlooking Teleki Valley to reach McKinders Camp (4300m). We enjoy the view here if the weather allows then later head down to the starting point where we board our vehicle back to Nairobi.
Kindly note that we shall be gaining a lot of altitude therefore come mentally and physically prepared for this hike.
