Kara-Tunga Tours and Mountain Slayers Uganda have partnered to organise the first-of-its-kind Karamoja 3 Mountains Challenge 6 Days (3 Peaks • 69 Km • 5,442 m elevation).
From November 17th to 22nd, 2023, participants will tackle three of the least-climbed peaks in Uganda: Mount Kadam, Mount Moroto, and Mount Napak. This challenge is perfect for experienced hikers who are looking for an off-the-beaten-path adventure.
The mountains of Karamoja are an exciting alternative to the more strenuous climbs in East Africa with many of the same attractions, a milder climate, lower elevation, and requiring no special equipment or technical experience.
Different from other mountains in Uganda, these mountains are still inhabited by indigenous communities, which adds a unique cultural experience to the challenge.
A team of researchers found a mutilated fossil, believed to be the remote cousin of Hominidae in volcanic ash on the slopes of Mt Napak, in Karamoja on July 18, 2011.
Karamoja regional tourism and hospitality stakeholders celebrate the launch of ‘Karamoja Tourism and Hospitality Association’, aimed at a community-led and sustainable tourism sector in the Karamoja sub-region of northern Uganda.
Since our beginnings, we have been blessed to collaborate with photographer, story teller and guide Marcus Westberg. His passion for the remote and unknown made us engage in a long-term commitment to cover Uganda’s best kept secret: Karamoja.
