Day 2: Transfer to Sine Camp
You will transfer to the footsteps of the mountain to start the Climb up from 1,450 to Sine Hut 2,680m where you spend a
night. This hike starts from the valley floor through tall forest trees of the Afro Montane Forest Zone and continues
with a steady climb with multitudes of birds and a chance of seeing blue monkeys scampering off through the forest. At
times visitors may see troupes of 15 to 20 black and white Colobus monkeys as they swing through the treetops. There are
rare sightings of the L’Hoest monkey, which are part of the Bukonzo cultural emblems and are protected by the virtue of
the King or Omusinga or you may hear wild chimpanzee in the distance. There is wide variety of plant species from forest
trees to bamboos thickets, low shrubs, flowers, fungi, and with many moss and lichen covered vines hanging from the tall
trees creating an awesome appeal.
Enock’s Falls are just 200 meters from Sine Hut and offer a splendid opportunity to capture a great screensaver for your
memories. At Sine Camp 2,596 meters we have wooden huts set between tall forest trees on a narrow ridge where you may
sit and enjoy the beauty of the Afro Montane forest while you look down at a fantastic waterfall crashing over the rocks
far below. For those who are fit and want to proceed to Kalalama Camp at 3,134 metres may do so and apart from the
fantastic views gives you more time at Mutinda Camp where you may climb up to Mutinda Lookout at 3,975 metres.
