Rwenzori Mountains National Park
The Fabled Mountains of the Moon & Equatorial Glaciers
About Rwenzori Mountains National Park
A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Rwenzori Mountains contain Africa's third-highest peak, Mount Stanley (Margherita Peak at 5,109m). Unlike Kilimanjaro, the Rwenzoris are not volcanic but rather a giant tectonic block. The mist-veiled range features otherworldly giant groundsels, alpine bogs, and permanent glaciers on the equator.
