We are excited to receive the first donation of clothing and equipment for hiking guides from Dutch hiking tour company Bergwandelen.com, expedition leader Jan Bakker and Royal Dutch Climbing and Mountaineering Association (NKBV).
The initiative
Outdoor enthousiast know that having the appropriate type of equipment can play a big role in having a succesful adventure. Currently hiking tourism and adventure tourism in general is on the rise in Uganda, but quality and affordable equipment is still hard to find. The majority of people buys from the second hand markets and who can afford imports gear from abroad.
