Jebel Kujur & Heroes: Half Day Tour

Jebel Kujur & Heroes: Half Day Tour

Jebel Kujur hovers over the landscape, with its elongated, peculiar shape. The 684m-high landmark mountain looks like a dusty piece of rock in the dry season, and turns into a green, luxurious hill when the rains come. Hiking to the top is amazing with brilliant views. It can be busy on weekends and the paths up are rugged and quite steep in some parts. You’ll certainly want to go with somebody who knows the route and can guide you safely. It’s a fair bit of exercise but well worth it. Get picked up at 6:00 am from your accommodation site in Juba. Drive about 20 minutes to 45 minutes to the base of Jebel Kujur Mountain in a private vehicle. The tour guide will aid you on your hiking expedition as you feel the amazing breeze of River Nile. The mountain is a bit steep, meaning you will take breaks as much as it’s needed. Once you arrive at the top, you will enjoy the beautiful and amazing view of the South Sudan Capital City Juba. After taking in the views and photos from the top you will slowly descend back down to the base of the mountain and the driver will take you to the heroes which is along the road of taking you back to your accommodation. At the heroes, you will view and have history of the heroes of South Sudan.
