Mount Bisoke stands at 3700m, with the typical conic shape of a “perfect” volcano and in its crater lies a deep crater lake. For those interested in climbing Mount Bisoke, the volcano does not present an exceptionally demanding climb but it is nevertheless still a tough hike. The high elevation demands extra strength of climbers and the whole excursion can take between 5 hours and a whole day depending on the speed of the walk and the frequency of stops. The ascent typically takes around 3 hours. During the climb, you will cross a series of different vegetation habitats starting with bamboo forests, then moving into Hagenia-Hypericum forest and finally moving through Seneci -Lobelia bush near the summit. You will then descend and transfer to western Uganda.
