On the day of hiking this mountain, the clients are required to be at Kinigi by 7am for the mountain hiking safari Rwanda/Rwanda hiking safaris by the park rangers; these are normally natives of this area that are very knowledgeable about the mountaineering adventures. After the briefing, the ranger distributes the nicely crafted hiking sticks and after will lead you through the trails until you reach the top. You may be required to take porters with you for they may provide a push or pull through the challenging spots, such as muddy, steep & slippery.

You will see how beautiful the experience is!
