Day 1: We Drive to Kasese Town

We will venture out to Kasese Town, hidden on the Western side of Uganda, to the Rwenzori Mountains. The drive will take us around 8 hrs from Kampala through Fort Entry. We will do some shopping for the essential gear we will need for the 4-day journey to the Rwenzori Mountains.

Day 2: Trek itinerary too – Rwenzori Mountains National Park.

At 8:30 in the morning, we will start and head straight to meet the aides for preparation. You will begin strolling to the UWA officers’ post at around 1,727 meters. Here, the officers will brief you on the day’s exercises alongside the principles of the National Park. The walk is about 8.6 km, and the anticipated time should cover between 5 and 7 hours. Beginning from the Trekkers headquarters at 1,450 meters and moving up to 3,171 meters.

Day 3: Hike for about 7.4 kilometres, 4 to 5 hours.

After you finish breakfast, you will depart from the camp and cross a small stream. Next, you will tackle a steep 200-meter ascent up a narrow, covered ridge.

From this vantage point, you can see Kilembe town nestled deep in the valley and look across toward Lake George. Next, you will continue your trek to end the trail at Kiharo Camp, which sits at an elevation of 3,588 meters. Finally, you will settle in at the base of massive stone cliffs that rise 20 to 40 meters, while towering peaks loom directly above you.

Finally, you will enjoy your evening meals while overlooking the amazing views of Kasese and Lake George.

Day 5: 11.6 km We slowly descend through the bamboo forests.

The bamboo zone remains wet and boggy because it sheds large volumes of moisture-retaining leaves. As we arrive at the lower part of the edge, we cross an enormous, quick-streaming stream on the Musenge rock cover.

We will eat and take a brief break before we walk the last 6 km through the thick montane timberland to the Rangers Post at around 1,727 meters. After a short preparation, we close down and stroll.

Overnight: At Trekkers Hostel.
