The marvel of the high glaciers, the beauty of the valley of nine lakes, and the bearded lichen hanging from enormous heathers against a backdrop of steep cliffs, crags, and snow-capped peaks make trekking in the mysterious Rwenzori Mountains National Park in Uganda a truly amazing and singular experience. The best hiking experiences are created as you ascend through several plant zones and encounter a vast diversity of flora and fauna from various biospheres. This one-of-a-kind, breathtaking journey has never before been made public; it is unquestionably among the most stunning hikes in the world.

A World Heritage Site, the Rwenzori Mountains provide a chance to experience nature at its finest. The landscape is absolutely breathtaking, and the plant life ranges from dense tropical rainforest to bamboo forests, montane cloud forests, and alpine vegetation. Above 4,500 meters, snow and glaciers provide the breathtaking views throughout this pristine mountain range a unique depth.

To fit your schedule and sense of adventure, Devine African Safaris offers a range of trekking and climbing alternatives, from one day to twelve days. The Rwenzori range is a true mountain range with numerous rises and descents, making it a difficult climb but with breathtaking landscape and lush vegetation. The "Rwenzori Mountains" are a truly unique experience due to the high rainfall of more than three meters per year, the moss-covered rocks, the dense vegetation, the tall peaks and cliffs towering above the moss-covered valleys and meandering streams, and the "Alice in Wonderland atmosphere," which changes through several biospheres as you climb.

The main peaks can be seen above from Bamwanjara Pass, which is located on the Kilembe Route between Camps 3 and 4. Margherita Peak can just be made out peeking over the top of Mt. Stanley, which lies on the left, along with Savoia, Great Tooth, and Elena Peaks. Mt. Speke is in the center, and Mt. Baker may be seen on the left as you gaze over the ridge that ascends to Weismann’s Peak. McConnell’s Prong is the little, finger-shaped rock on the ridge. The valley between Mount Stanley and Mount Baker may be seen from behind the prong. From the location where the picture was taken, our trail descends the valley or passes Camp 4 and Kacholpe Lakes in the foreground before crossing the valley to Kitandra Lakes.
