Sirimon route is considered by many to represent Mt. Kenya one of the easiest route to reach Point Lenana.
The route is on dry side of the mountain and affords walks through old growth forest on lower slopes and giant heather, alpine flowers and lobelia in higher elevations.

Chogoria route is said to have the most scenic views of Mt. Kenya and is on the wetter (East) side of the mountain and the Chogoria Forest offers some exceptional walking and sceneries. The bamboo forest is also thickest on this side of the mountain. Beyond the Park Gate is the magnificent Lake Ellis.
