Mount Elgon National Park

Dominated by the massive caldera of Africa’s oldest extinct volcano, Mount Elgon NP offers multi-day treks through bamboo forest, moorland and alpine meadow. Highlights include the Great Plateau with its steam-venting caves, the magnificent Mude cave system, and the scenic Wagagai peak at 4,321 m. Park guides lead camping expeditions beneath clear starry skies, and nearby Sipi Falls provides a refreshing reward after summit attempts.
