Kidepo Valley National Park
Experience
Overview
Remoteness that you can imagine and come across in Uganda. Untouched, and brimming with varied landscapes, the Kidepo National Park is one of Africa’s hidden gems. Gazetted as a national park in 1962, it has a profusion of big game and hosts over 77 mammal species as well as around 475 bird species. This is Uganda’s most wilderness destination far away from city life. Early morning in the company of your guide, you will be introduced to the park’s fantastic flora as well as its wildlife. Lions, leopard, cheetah, elephant, giraffe, zebra (this is Uganda’s only park where giraffe and zebra are found together), possibly Africa’s largest herds of buffalo, hartebeest, antelopes, waterbuck, bushbuck, warthog, an extensive array of over 500 bird species and so much more.
On a later evening, marvel at the towering mountains which stand vigil in the distance. Dotted with small green hills, rocky rugged out crops and inselberg the vast landscape throughout the park is incredible, and one can enjoy spectacular views in all directions.
Why specially visit Kidepo Valley National Park. Often with less than 15 new visitors per day, yet wildlife in Kidepo National Park is abundant. Expect an almost private game drive experience as you traverse through vast plains, punctuated with craggy outcrops, and a flourishing valley.
