The historical Rwenzori Mountains were placed on the map by the explorer Henry Stanley on the 24th of May 1888. Labeling it ‘Ruwenzori’, a local name which he recorded as meaning “Rain-Maker” or “Cloud-King.” The world heritage site recognized mountains in 1994 and a Ramsar site in 2008.This famous area was gazetted in 1991 and before that alexandrine geographer had christened the Rwenzori as the “mountains of the moon” in AD 150. The Ruwenzori, or the Rwenzori and Rwenjura, in eastern equatorial Africa, are home to about 217 bird species including the 19 Albertine rift endemics and some of the world's rare vegetation. The Rwenzoris lie in western Uganda along the Congo-Uganda border with huge tree heather and colorful mosses draped across the mountainside with the giant lobelias and “never-ending” creating a charming folk-tale scene with Mount Stanley’s Margherita peak being the highest point at 5109m above the sea level bisected the Congo border. The Rwenzori Mountains aren’t volcanoes like any other mountains in East Africa, they are a block of rock up-faulted through the floor of the western arm of the rift valley. There are quite a several activities around the zone, both long walks and short walks with community interactions. Just at 120km-long and 65km-wide Rwenzori Mountains National Park match the tagline “the mystical challenge”
