Destinations: Lake Mburo Park

Lake Mburo covers an area of 260km between 1220m-1828m above sea level. Wetland habitats comprises 20% of the park surface. Lake Mburo offers some novel means of game viewing, in a vehicle; on a mountain bike, by boat, on foot, and on horseback.

At only 370km, Lake Mburo National Park is small compared to many East African parks but it is home to a surprising diversity of wildlife with 69 mammal species and 332 bird species. A number of the park’s herbivores are rarely, if at all, found elsewhere in Uganda. Lake Mburo is the only park that contains impalas and the only one in western Uganda with Burchell’s zebra and eland. Topi are only found elsewhere in Queen Elizabeth National Park. The species list was expanded in 2015 when a number of Rothschild’s giraffe were relocated to Lake Mburo from Murchison Falls National Park, Leopards and hyenas are also present and, after years of absence, lions are once more sighted
