Waste Disposal

Refuse left by careless hikers is not only an eyesore but can also be harmful to all forms of wildlife. There is no proper means of waste disposal on the mountain other than carrying litter out.


Buried litter breaks down extremly slowly in this enviroment and is liable to be dug up by animals. Unsightly and unhealthy garbage pits could result which is why we are very attentive to this issue. Burning is illegal.
If you have extra supplies, give them directly to someone who will use them. Do not leave them in the huts. Collect uneaten food scraps and pack them out with the litter. Do not feed the animals. Be a part of the Mount Kenya Clean-Up Effort. Bring back more than just your own litter!

We had the best trip earlier this year. We booked up through GotoMountKenya - Evans was our correspondent, and he is absolutely reliable, and wonderful! He organised everything for us on Mt Kenya, and then took us to Tanzania for our Mt Kilimanjaro adventure.

I had a fantastic time on the mountain and enjoyed every step. Nicholas and Chris did an outstanding job and were very professional.  I am hopeful that they enjoyed my company as much as I enjoyed theirs. Tony, USA.
