The lodge is a base for climbing Mount Kenya through Chogoria route. The Timau Track, the main access route on the north side of the mountain lies in a major rain shadow. Because of this there is a very little forest on this side of the mountain.
However since you are inside a low rainfall zone it generally makes for a drier safari and a more pleasant trek. Timau River Lodge is at 2240 meters in altitude, so the evenings can be particularly cool, so you definitely need to have warm clothing.
