Hiking Mount Bisoke is an adventurous and exciting activity which is not restricted to experienced hikers. Hiking up to the summit takes 6 hours while coming down 2 or more depending on how frequently the hiking team stops for rest. Seasoned mountain climbers can reach the summit in 3 hours. A Mount Bisoke hike is considered less demanding but hikers should be reasonably fit and prepare to deal with the thorny plants, stinging insects and muddy trails – especially during the rainy season. The temperature/oxygen levels is one aspect hikers have to prepare to deal with. Temperatures can get so low and make the hike tiring hence requiring frequent stops.
