Double-sided sheet combining three maps of the mountain at various scales, drawings of its peaks annotated with hiking and climbing routes, and information on for hikers and climbers. The main map at 1:50,000 and an enlargement of the peak area at 1:25,000 have contours at 50m intervals, show glaciers, scree, cliffs and rocky ridges, as well as different types of vegetation, plus hiking and climbing routes, shelters and unmanned huts, rangers’ posts, etc. Neither map has geographical coordinates. A separate inset at 1:400,000 shows the roads around Mt Kenya and access to it from local villages, indicating accommodation, medical facilities, petrol stations, etc. Latitude and longitude are marked at 30’ intervals.
On the reverse there are diagrams showing the routes to the peaks from the south-west and the north, with more detailed diagrams for the North Face standard route and the south-east face of the Nelion summit, all with path and climbing routes indicating the degree of difficulty. Extensive text in English, French, German and Italian provides general information on the routes, climate, flora and fauna, plus advice on equipment and some useful contact details.
