What to expect
Day 1: Wanale Hike Challenge “Temple of Nature”, Mbale
8h · Admission ticket included
We depart at around 08:00 hours. This hike takes us through the beautiful Wanale Ranges, part of the Nkokonjeru arm – a 25km long tongue of lava that flowed out of the side of the volcano. We will experience an awe-inspiring hike as we go through breathtaking fauna and flora, petrified wood, caves, waterfalls, rock formations and swim in the pool of virginity as a reward for a challenging trek. Beware of throwing a stone into the Nabuyonga stream – local folklore claims that if you do so, a thunderstorm will strike you before you leave. We later head towards our campsite.
Day 2: Walwanyi Falls Challenge “Experience of a Lifetime”, Bududa
10h · Admission ticket included
After breakfast we venture into the countryside district of Bududa and experience a charming village setting. Enjoy a spectacular and enlightening guided 5–8 hours hike to the highest peak in the Bududa valley. From the top, you enjoy breathtaking views of the valley and Bududa district. You will also notice how high up people can live and how far they must travel for supplies. Later we descend and head towards Mbale town as we end our tour with beautiful memories.
