Part II of the Pan-Africa Meet will attempt four of the main seven Rwenzori mountains with a group of experienced alpinists.  The ten day trek will begin early on January 25th.  By day four we should summit Wiesmann and Sella Peaks, the two highest peaks of Mount Luigi di Savoia.  On day five, we will attempt Edward Peak on Mount Baker, the third highest and most technical of all the Rwenzori.  On day seven, we will aim for Margherita Peak on Mount Stanley, the highest and most famous in the range.  The following day, we will attempt the second highest mountain, Vittorio Emmanuel Peak on Mount Speke.  By day ten, we should be back at the trailhead for a much needed shower and transport back to Kampala.  Participants pay Rwenzori Trekking Service for guides, porters, food, equipment, and huts.  Everyone must also pay entrance to Rwenzori Mountain National Park.

This event is full and waitlisted.  If you’d like to be added to the list, contact Matt Battani.
