Mount Kalongo

Kalongo, Northern Region, Uganda

Some of the best multi-pitch rock-climbing in Uganda! Mt. Kalongo is a large granite volcanic plug rising above the small and hospitable town of Kalongo.

One route so far. “The Corporate Night” 400 meters, E1-5a.
Great adventurous climbing on solid rock with a bold finish.
First Ascent E. Freudenthal and L. Hodgkinson on 30/11/2015.

Potential for many more but they will likely be quite serious undertakings. Only the longer (and less steep) East face has been climbed, the steep cliffs overlooking the town are longing for a couple of hardcore climbers to make a first ascent.
