Ugandas

Ugandas größter und ältester Nationalpark; zahlreiche Nilpferde, Krokodile, Elefanten, Büffel, Wasserböcke; viele Löwen, Leoparden und Patas-Affen; große Vogelvielfalt in den Feuchtgebieten, Trockensavannen und lichten Wäldern..

A quiet park set in stunning landscapes of semi-arid open savannas and rocky outcrops. It is famous for its incredible diversity of raptors, including 13 eagle species.

Arguably the best place in the world to see the prehistoric Shoebill (Balaeniceps rex).

Mountain gorillas are the absolute stars here, and the great diversity of Albertine Rift endemic bird species will keep the birder very happy.

Famous for its African Skimmers (Rynchops flavirostris) and tree-climbing lions, this is one of the foremost birding and wildlife destinations on the continent.
