Mt. Kenya offers breathtaking views, epic memories, and just enough challenge to make you question your life choices—before the summit sunrise makes it all worthwhile. It’s nature’s way of saying, ‘Bet you can’t top this!’ Spoiler: Yes -You can.

Elephant Hill is the perfect hike for anyone who thinks they’re fit—until about 10 minutes in. 😅 Starting off easy with a scenic stroll through a forest, it quickly turns into a test of your legs, lungs, and will to live. The steep sections will have you negotiating with your maker, but hey, the views at the top make it all worth it! Pro tip: Carry snacks, water, and a friend to complain to. You’ll thank yourself later! 😂
