The Sirimon Track is one of the finest approaches to the peak areas and offers some of the best views of the main peaks with a gradual climb which can be done leisurely. This challenging non technical ascent can be made by any healthy person and is designed for those with a minimum amount of time and want to reach the 3rd highest
peak, Point Lenana.

We camp at Shiptons Cabins of the Mackinder’s Valley, just below the main peaks of Batian and Nelion (4,300m) By end of this day we shall have done 8hrs of walking (leisurely) .This will be a true taste of patience, endurance and determination.
