WESTERN UGANDA

Rwenzori Mountains National Park

The Rwenzori Mountains offer a mountain journey through changing vegetation, valleys and high-altitude scenery. A short walk and a multi-day expedition call for very different preparation.

What draws travellers here

  • Guided mountain trekking
  • Distinctive mountain vegetation
  • Multi-day routes for prepared hikers

Plan it well

Start with your fitness, experience and available days. We help arrange an appropriate specialist trekking operator and clarify guides, porters, equipment and accommodation. High-altitude or technical routes need specific preparation and should never be treated as an ordinary nature walk.

Wildlife moves freely; sightings are never guaranteed. Activities depend on permits, conditions and availability.
