Located on the border of Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, the highest peak of the ‘Mountains of the Moon’ is a dizzying 5109 meters, and the range is home to the only glaciers on the African continent. A climb to Margherita Peak will take you through swirling mists and glorious alpine meadows, past weird and wonderful plants, and even forest elephants and okapi.
Currently, the park isn’t able to supply climbing gear or food for trekkers so you’ll need to come prepared, but you will be accompanied by a Virunga ranger and local porter.
