Rwenzori Mountains

The stunning Rwenzori Mountains are set in Western Uganda spreading across the border region with Congo DR. The mountain range is famous for a wide selection of flora and fauna as it consists of five different vegetation zones. Starting with evergreen rainforests at an elevation level of 1,500-2,800 metres it changes to bamboo forests until an altitude of about 3,300m. Higher up the climate changes and you can find the heather, alpine and nival zones with unique vegetation for equatorial Africa. The wildlife can also offer spectacular encounters like leopards, elephants, antelopes or bushbucks as well as various monkey species. In total, about 70 different mammal species call the Rwenzori Mountains their home. In addition to that, there are also many species of birds, reptiles and amphibians in the Rwenzori National Park.
