Hi, I used a guide called Sammy Kassaw. He can be contacted at: samuel x kassaw xx gmail x com where x is a dot and xx is @ He organised everything - he was really professional and keen. The food was also excellent, and he provided a tent etc. I arranged my own flights to Gonder and Sammy picked me up there at my hotel and then dropped me off there again at the end of the trekking. It's best to send him an email saying what you would like to do. I did a 7 day trek. He can suggest a good itinerary, depending on your dates. I recommend Ras Dejen (4543m) which is the highest peak in Ethiopia :-) Hope this helps, Peter McNair

Q:
I worried if the sole of the gumboots is slippery on the wet rocks? How did you feel :)

It’s not sole gum boots. The summit says are ordinary hiking boots. Otherwise the rest of the mountain is better traversed in gumboots.

I did the 7 days Rwenzori Central Circuit in January 2017, Margherita peak was in the plan but the weather got nasty so I skipped it and just hiked the Central Circuit - ultimately beautiful and scenic hike. You can find the two companies providing for hiking Rwenzori and climbing Margherita easy in Google, they are called Rwenzori Mountaineering Services (Central Circuit) and Rwenzori Trekking Services (Kilembe)
