Uganda Hiking Trips - Hiking Safaris in Uganda

Hiking safaris in Uganda are one of the most meorable adventures in the world. Our Hiking Safaris and Trips take you for short hiking trips and long hiking trips on Mount Rwenzori, Mount Elgon or Muhavura ranges in the Western part of the country. Mountain Elgon is an Extinct Volcano that first erupted more than million years ago. Mount Elgon is the fourth highest mountain in East Africa with 4321meters (Wagagai peak) after Kilimajaro, Mt. Kenya and Rwenzori. The mountain has a collapsed caldera.

These incomparably beautiful, non volcanic, mist shrouded Rwenzori Mountains are not the only attraction for hikers in Uganda; there is the famous Mount Elgon in the east. Standing 4,321m tall, it is the 4th highest mountain in East Africa. Most of this area is covered with typical afro-montane vegetation, complete with giant groundsels and bamboo forest. The mountain offers a milder climate and lower elevation than the Rwenzoris and climbing the peaks requires no special equipment or technical climbing experience. It is possible to summit the mountain in as few as three days, but a slightly longer visit will permit a more thorough exploration.

Uganda is a treat for hikers offerring hiking safaris to both Mt Elgon and Rwenzori mountains
