Description
The road to Moroto is mostly unpaved. This combined with the continuous climbing and the heat can make this stage a challenging one! Make sure you carry enough water with you! The environment however, is stunning, very special and so different from all other stages on this trail. Mount Moroto, seen from far away, will be your focus point as the town of Moroto is located at the foot of the mountain. This will also be your final destination for today. Along the way, you will see many friendly locals on the roadside, wearing traditional clothes which makes the ride even more special!

Accommodation
Just located on the slopes of Mount Moroto in the Karamoja region, Kara-Tunga Karamoja Safari Camp is definitely the place to be. The tented accommodation is a blend of traditional with a modern touch which will give you an unique experience for sure. They also offer nice activities in the region.
A quiet, good place to relax. The Black Lantern is located in Bujagali, just right next to the Nile. They have amazing tents with en-suited bathrooms overlooking the Nile. And if you are a fan of spareribs, their chef does a pretty good job on them, yum!
