Themed Trips » Trekking
Despite the fact that many tourists never step out of their four wheel drive vehicles, there is a wide array of exhilarating and highly rewarding ways to discover Africa on foot. Those who want the ultimate intimate experience with wild animals may walk among elephant herds in Samburu, lion prides in Hwange, or gorilla families in Parc National des Volcans. Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe all offer exquisite opportunities to view game of every shape and size on foot.
Of course, exotic animals are not the only thing to see while walking through African landscapes. Single and multi-day hikes throughout East and Southern Africa afford an endless supply of breathtaking scenery and endorphin-inducing terrain. In Tanzania’s Crater Highlands, Uganda’s Rwenzori Mountains, Rwanda’s Virunga Volcanoes, Malawi’s Nyika and Zomba Plateaus, Zimbabwe’s Eastern Highlands, Kenya’s Aberdare Mountains, or Namibia’s Fish River Canyon, the opportunities are manifold, the paths unremittingly enticing.
If you want to scale a summit from which you can look down to behold the world at your feet, there is hardly a more magical milieu than the rugged glaciers of the Rwenzoris, the ice and rock spires of Mt. Kenya, the pure-white cap of Kilimanjaro, or the sheer rock towers of Mt. Mulanje. Trekkers and technical climbers alike will find a challenging and profoundly rewarding adventure on the rugged slopes of Africa’s great peaks.
