Ama Dablam

Kilimanjaro / Kenya

The expedition we are planning to in June/July 2001 visits Mount Kenya as well as Africa's highest - Mount Kilimanjaro. We will also take in two game parks, for a brief taste of Safari. Out trip is planned to launch into the Kilimanjaro climb first; relax with animal watching second, then circle Mount Kenya last. For the mountaineers, optional climbs of Batian and Nelion - Mount Kenya's two peaks - will be available. If conditions permit, we are also considering a further, optional extension to visit the Ruwenzori - the fabled "Mountains of the Moon" - in western Uganda too.
