Description
The Green Highlands Trail is located in Western Uganda and leads you from the high mountainous area of Bwindi down to the beautiful and green Kalisizo close to Lake Victoria. The trail features a hilly route through an unbelievable environment of 1000 shades of green: the tropical rainforest in Bwindi, the vast banana plantations in Mbarara and the exciting plains of Lake Mburo National Park. The green vegetation is made possible by the frequent rainfall (most in the whole of Uganda) and the many lakes such as Mutanda, Mulele, Bunyonyi and Mburo. The Green Highlands Trail consists of 6 stages, has a length of around 400km and contains over 5,000 elevation meters, which is roughly one third of the total amount. So get ready for some climbing and an occasional hike & bike.
