Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "not confirmed by the operator" are listed on OpenStreetMap or in guides but could not be checked on an official page. The huts are run by Rwenzori Mountaineering Services (RMS) and come only as part of an RMS trek package with guides, porters, meals and park entry; you cannot book a hut on its own or walk without a guide.
