Mount Elgon National Park surrounds an ancient extinct volcano on Uganda’s eastern border, with a vast caldera, cliffs, caves and waterfalls.
The montane forest supports buffaloes, elephants, duikers, primates and many high-altitude birds and plants.
Multi-day hiking, waterfalls, caves, the caldera, coffee-region visits and guided birding.
Hikes vary from gentle walks to demanding summit routes. Weather changes quickly, so use a registered guide and pack warm waterproof layers.
