Mount Kenya is the second-highest mountain in Africa, with an elevation of 5,199 meters above sea level (MASL). It has three main peaks: Batian (5,199 MASL), Nelion (5,188 MASL), and Point Lenana (4,985 MASL). Due to the technical climb to reach Batian and Nelion (with up to 20 rock climbing pitches), the highest trekking peak is Point Lenana.

There are three main routes commonly used to reach Point Lenana:

Gass peak is the highest peak in the Las Vegas Range reaching 6,943 feet above sea level. The peak overlooks Las Vegas standing out in the Desert National Wildlife Refuge.

The route is made up of a combination of old roadbed and a user-created path and can be somewhat difficult to follow at points. The route gets narrow and crosses unstable surfaces and requires a little bit of scrambling. It starts and ends at the Gass Peak Trail Head with the turnaround point being marked by the U.S. Geological Survey Benchmark on top of the peak.

The High Peak Way is a linear walk in the Peak District. It was first described as a challenge walk in the 1993 booklet by Alan S Edwards.

Roamin' with the Romans is a linear route in the Lake District. It was first described in the 1999 book "Lakeland Mountain Challenges" by Ronald Turnbull and Roy Clayton. Starting at Windermere railway station, the route follows the old Roman Road over High Street to Penrith Castle and railway station. It is 36 km (23 miles) long, with 1100 m (3700 ft) of ascent.
