Experience the Best of Uganda's Safaris

MOUNTAIN CLIMBING,

MT. RWENZORI

For centuries, the Rwenzori Mountains astride Uganda s boarder with the Democratic Republic of Congo, dominated the legends of ancient Africa. The range was forced up during the formation of the East African Rift Valley system. Time, weather and erosive forces-mainly glaciers and rivers, shaped the mountains as we see them today. The combination of altitude, landscape and effusion of colors is so magnificent and scenic, as to make the Rwenzori a unique afro-alpine experience.
To savoir a slice of what these mountains have to offer, both professional climbers and casual day hikers endure up to seven days at a time, in extreme weather to share this experience.
At 5109 meters above sea level, Margaritah is the highest peak on the mountain.
