Safety note: Africa's second-highest mountain (5,199 m) — altitude sickness is a real risk; use a licensed guide/operator, acclimatise, and note the park fee is per day (multiply for multi-day climbs). Technical peaks (Batian/Nelion) need mountaineering skills; Point Lenana is the trekkers' summit.
