while the summit of Mt.Shari is not very spectacular, the real reason to do this hike is the "old trail" up. After the first trail/forest section you will reach the stream which you will follow for several kilometers uphill. At most places the stream turns into a waterfall and you will be hiking/scrambling right next to it. There are countless spots to take great pictures and the water is clean and clear. it's ice cold and drinkable and i filled my bottle with it but didn't get sick... now a few weeks later i can confirm that. after the waterfall you will go through some low growth scrubs until you reach the rocky section to the first saddle. from there its a 15 min. climb to the summit. Going down use the "new road" which is dry and easier to decent than along the waterfall. all in all about a 6.5 hour total hike going at an average pace with plenty of stops to take pics.…
