    Hello friends, am planning to establish Abseiling and Rock climbing on Mpanga falls.

    Mpanga falls neighbors Queen Elizabeth National Park found in Western part of Uganda.

    Am trying to look for leads to help me achieve this.

    I would appreciate it for any leads and contacts.

    Hi Mwebingwa

    What kind of help are you looking for? Is what you are planning actually feasible (access to the cliffs, safety, insurance, market opportunity?) What would it take to establish it safely and make it a destination (facilities, bolting, paths etc.) ? Are you wanting to create a sport climbing crag for visiting climbers or something that only your company has access to? What are the (if any) regulatory requirements for teaching abseiling and rockclimbing? who will be the instructors? How will they be trained and qualified?

    Approaching one of the big manufacturers such as Petzl as a potential partner or sponsor might be a first step.

    Good luck!
