Travel Guide: Lagos to Mount Kenya
Lagos is West Africa's gateway to East African adventure. Kenya Airways' direct service makes Mount Kenya surprisingly accessible, and Nigeria's fast-growing outdoor community is increasingly drawn to high-altitude trekking. For Lagos-based adventurers who've conquered Chappal Waddi or Obudu Plateau, Mount Kenya represents a quantum leap in scale and altitude — a genuine African mountaineering experience.
Mount Kenya National Park is managed by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS).
