Sirimon Trek (5 Days)
The Sirimon Track, one of the finest approaches to the peak area. We traverse the mountain by ascending the Sirimon Track and descending the Naro Moru Track.
Tour Itinerary:
Day 1: Morning spent sorting and organizing personal equipment for the mountain trek. Lunch at the lodge (this is an extra charge for those not on full board the previous night). In the afternoon we are driven to the Sirimon Gate and then to road head at 11000ft. An easy walk in the afternoon to help acclimatization. Overnight Judmaier Camp (11,000 ft.) in high altitude mountain tents.
Day 2: Ascend the Sirimon Track to Liki North Valley and camp overnight in this beautiful little valley below the subsidiary peaks of Tereri and Sendeyo, two ancient parasitic vents of the main peaks (13,000 ft.)
Day 3: Climb out of the North Valley and into the Mackinder Valley, one of the broadest valleys on the mountain, with many giant groundsels. Camp at the head of the Mackinder Valley, just below the main peaks of Batian and Nelion, (14,000 ft.)
Day 4: Alpine ascent of the third highest peak, Pt. Lenana (16,355 ft.) On route up the north face little used by tourists. Four hours of stiff walking to the summit. Then descend to Teleki Valley on the opposite side of the main peaks, to Mackinder’s Camp for a good night's rest (13,900ft.)
Day 5: Descend to the Met. Station (road-head) on the Naro Moru Track and then back to the lodge.
