Mount Kenya 3-Day Solo Hiking

A three-day hiking journey through Mount Kenya National Park, following the Chogoria side from Lake Ellis to Lake Michaelson, Mintos Camp, Chogoria Roadhead, and back toward Lake Ellis. This film covers the full route experience: driving into the park, camping at Lake Ellis, hiking through open moorland and dramatic valleys, descending to Lake Michaelson, climbing toward Mintos, and finishing the loop via Roadhead before exiting the park. The Chogoria Route is one of Mount Kenya’s most scenic approaches, known for its alpine lakes, wide valleys, cliffs, high-altitude camps, and changing mountain weather. This video is less of a summit attempt and more of a visual record of the trail, campsites, landscapes, and rhythm of a multi-day hike on Mount Kenya.
