Mackinders Hut Mount Kenya Climbing Accommodation

Mackinders Hut Mount Kenya Climbing Accommodation lies at an altitude of 4,200 meters (13,780 feet) and is a large bunkhouse and a campsite on Mount Kenya. It is encountered along the Naro Moru trekking route and is located within the Teleki Valley. It is one of the larger campsites on the mountain, boasting a lodge capable of accommodating up to 50 people, as well as a camping space and water supply. The onsite accommodation is a stone-built house called the Teleki Lodge, with glass windows and dormitory-style rooms – each with several bunk beds and normally requires pre-booking.

Most of the people you would find at the camp would be those ascending from the met station campsite and heading to the peak on the next day, or those descending from the peaks – who may be a useful source of information on the weather conditions or other climbing tips. Others spend a day or two at the camp acclimatizing. For those ascending using the Naro Moru route, the campsite is normally reached late on the second day of a four-day trek, whereas for those descending using this route, this camp comes right after the summit attempt (from day 3).

Despite its altitude, the area around the campsite has a lot of vegetation, mostly patches of grass and groundsels, with a few rock hyrax and birds being the common animals to be seen atop the many rocks that make up the landscape. Foggy mornings do occur in the area, with the occasional rainfall or snow.
