There is a good selection of easier routes on this side. The Egyptian is a super popular intermediate top rope route, but it has been trad climbed as well. These climbs are a bit shorter than on the other areas and a number of them have only one difficult move. The rock here slopes more positively making the routes mostly walk ups with the cruxs being near the ground.
This is the far end of the crag if starting from the right. This is shaded in the morning, so get here early and bag these routes before it turns into an oven.
©Free for everyone. Insita Luwazi is on community land. Climbers have always had a warm welcome. We pay 3000 Uganda Shillings to park at a nearby house. There is some occasional conflict in the community about who should get those shillings. Up to now, this has not affected the climbers. Call Ishma at: 0773 128 861 and tell him you are coming or just show up. He will let you park in front of his house and can show you around the crag if needed. Ishma maintains the trail to Insita and can clean/thrash the belay area if needed. You can also buy local food and produce from Ishma if you choose. Climbing at camping at Insita Luwazi is free.
©Insita is pretty developed, so there isn't much room to bolt new routes. If you see a line you'd like to add, please check with the Mountain Club of Uganda.
