Service Description

________________________________________ 2-Day Mount Elgon National Park Tour – Easy Forest Hike to Tutum Cave This Mount Elgon National Park Tour is one of the easiest and most enjoyable hikes you can do in eastern Uganda. It is perfect for visitors who want to explore Mount Elgon in a short time without tough climbs or high-altitude challenges. Day 1: Kapkwai Gate – Tutum Cave Your tour starts at Kapkwai Gate and leads you through beautiful montane forests on the slopes of Mount Elgon. As you hike, you will enjoy amazing views, fresh mountain air, and a mix of new and old forests. Along the way, you may spot birds, monkeys, and baboons (if they don’t run away first!). The trail continues gently to Tutum Cave, one of the largest and most famous caves on Mount Elgon. The cave is mysterious—no one knows exactly where it ends, and some believe it connects to Kenya. You will camp here for the night and enjoy a peaceful evening in nature. Day 2: Tutum Cave – Kapkwai Gate After breakfast, you hike back to Kapkwai Gate using a different trail, giving you more chances to enjoy the forest scenery before ending your Mount Elgon National Park Tour. ________________________________________ Why Choose This Mount Elgon National Park Tour? • Explore a lot of Mount Elgon in a short time • Suitable for beginners and casual hikers • More affordable than many Mount Elgon treks • No high-altitude problems since the hike stays in the forest zone • Visit the iconic Tutum Cave • Easy to combine with Sipi Falls, Pian Upe Game Reserve, or Sisiyi Falls ________________________________________ What’s Included • Park entrance fees • Camping fees inside the park • Food, water, and snacks • Cook • Porter • Transfer to and from Kapkwai Gate What’s Not Included • Tips • Personal items • Anything not mentioned above ________________________________________
