点评:I had a great time climbing Mount Elgon on a hike organized by Sharif. Reaching the summit via the shortest route from the Bushiyi Trailhead was a nice workout. Aside from a properly steep section on the first day, the hike is completely manageable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness.
The organization worked very well. After an adrenaline-inducing bodaboda ride to the trailhead, we soon set out toward the first camp. Following a filling lunch, we pushed on toward Dubi Camp where we spent the afternoon. Bring enough warm clothes as it gets cold in the evening! Our tents with mattresses were put up inside a shelter, so even if it rains, you'll stay dry. The food was plentiful again for dinner and a fire provided us with some warmth. Early the next morning we set out again, reaching the summit in a little over 2 hours. The views were spectacular!
Walking down was a piece of cake. One more night at the lower Shilonko Camp and then it was out the third day.
Highly recommend this tour and this hike in particular :)
翻译:在 Sharif 组织的徒步活动中,我度过了一段美好的时光,攀登了埃尔贡山。从 Bushiyi 步道出发,沿最短的路线到达山顶,锻炼身体。除了第一天的一段陡峭路段外,任何身体条件较好的人都可以轻松完成这次徒步。
组织工作非常出色。在乘坐刺激的 bodaboda 自行车到达步道起点后,我们很快就出发前往第一个营地。吃完丰盛的午餐后,我们继续前往杜比营地,在那里度过了下午。带上足够的保暖衣物,因为晚上会变冷!我们的帐篷和床垫搭在避难所内,所以即使下雨,您也不会感到干燥。晚餐的食物也很丰富,篝火为我们提供了温暖。第二天一早,我们再次出发,在 2 个多小时内到达山顶。景色太壮观了!
下山很容易。在较低的 Shilonko 营地再住一晚,然后第三天就出发了。
强烈推荐这次旅行,特别是这次徒步旅行:)
