A steep, cone-shaped volcano straddling the Rwanda-Uganda border, its name meaning 'the guide' for the way it dominates the horizon. The relentless one-day climb gains over 1,700 meters to a small crater lake at the 4,127-meter summit. Clear days reward hikers with views over lakes Burera and Ruhondo.

Where next?

The world is wide open.
