    I have enjoyed watching this asante and congratulations 🌹. You did only 2 nights that is Mackinders and Austrian hut? Or did you spend another night after summit? Also which section of this route makes it seem harder than the other routes? Is it the section from met station to Mackinders or from Mackinders to point Lenana? I have trekked to Mackinders and i found it quite challenging but didn't go past Mackinders as that was the goal

    • @kiarieexploreske
      @kiarieexploreske  Рік тому +1

      Thanks Nancy. I did just 2 nights, one at Mackinders and one at Austrian, then went all the way down. Actually the route is not even that hard as assumed. But in my own opinion I'd say Met station- Mackinders is quite a distance which may be difficult for some people...

      @@kiarieexploreske oh great, I can handle Met to Mackinders. How is the terrain from Mackinders to Austrian and Lenana? Was it as steep as the one from met station to Mackinders or more steeper? Am kinda into that route as I found it very scenic inspite of the vertical bogs lol! Am also wondering if sleeping at Austrian wouldn't heighten altitude sickness

    • @kiarieexploreske
      @kiarieexploreske  Рік тому

      Met to Mackinders is not very steep but quite a distance, Mackinders to Austrian is extremely steep, but Austrian to Lenana is a short easy climb.

      Depends on how many days you spend on the mountain and which route, as well as the tour company you use, but usually between 30k to 40k Ksh...

    • @kiarieexploreske
      @kiarieexploreske  Рік тому

      Depends on which route you are using. Most of the routes actually don't have huts, plus you can also use the route with huts but opt to camp.. You can be advised further when you decide to embark on the climb. Thanks for the question.

    What about wild animal attacks?

    • @kiarieexploreske
      @kiarieexploreske  2 роки тому +2

      Thanks for the question brother... It is very rare for animals to attack people on the mountain unless you stray away from the normal climbing routes. Then as in their character, wild animals normally attack only when they feel threatened. The animals have also learnt that there are specific routes or paths that are used by humans so they avoid them. The intelligence on these creatures is unbelievable... I hope that answers the question...

      What precautions should one take before taking the hike.or in simply the challenges faced.

    • @kiarieexploreske
      @kiarieexploreske  Рік тому

      The important thing is to go with a guide.. They can advise you on everything and of courrse accompany you on the climb. Importantly, you need rain and warm gear as well as good waterproof boots..
