I just returned from a weeklong 350-mile cycling tour in the truly remote reaches of Northeast Uganda and Northwest Kenya known as the Tour of Karamoja; and while I feel a little tired from the physical effort, boy do I feel inspired, mentally refreshed, recharged and rejuvenated!
The reason for this, and why I absolutely love the Tour of Karamoja adventure cycling safari and look forward to it every single year is because for me it ticks all the boxes in terms of my highest values (what I am most passionate about) and what triggers my happiness.
I look forward to the Tour of Karamoja because, not only do I get a guaranteed dose of daily Happy Hormones, but a steady dose of all four happy hormones throughout the 7-day adventure:
It enabled me to; Achieve a Goal and complete a task (The challenging 350 miles with over 5,000m of climbing), all while eating lots of food along the way without worrying too much about it
It enabled me to help others by participating in fundraising for vulnerable Karamojong girls’ vocational training)
Loads of Exercise & Laughter. Every single day for 6 to 8 hours during.
Daily uninterrupted bouts of sun exposure, being in nature, mindfulness and meditation.
Marije Boot (Netherlands), Tour of Karamoja 2022 – Marije participated for the second time in Uganda’s annual wilderness bicycle event and this year she brought a friend along.
Memorable Tour in Karamoja with Kara-Tunga, Karamoja Tours – We enjoyed five memorable days in the Karamoja region in early October and highly recommend the services of Kara-Tunga Arts and Tours in Moroto. Theo, of Kara-Tunga, helped us organize our diverse itinerary before we travelled to Uganda.
David, Oct 2023 – As far as locations go this one is unbeatable. Timu Eco Camp lies high on a mountain ridge with spectacular views in all directions, just being here is worth it.
