Uganda is a country made for adventure. Hikers can explore the misty peaks of the Rwenzori Mountains, often called the “Mountains of the Moon,” with their snowcapped summits, cascading waterfalls, and rare wildlife. In the east, Mount Elgon offers trails through crater lakes, caves, and lush montane forests, perfect for those seeking a mix of challenge and scenic views. Further northeast, the rugged volcanic mountains of Karamoja provide a different kind of trek, where dramatic landscapes and vast plains create unforgettable panoramas. Whether you’re on a short day hike or a multi-day trek, Uganda’s mountains give a deep sense of immersion in nature.
