Best Time To Visit

The Best Time to Visit Mt. Kenya National Park is during the dry seasons, which occur from January to February and June to October. These months offer clear skies and more stable weather, making them ideal for trekking and climbing. The dry seasons also provide better visibility and safer conditions for mountaineering. The rainy season (from March to May and November to December) can make the trails slippery and challenging, especially for those attempting to summit Mount Kenya.
