Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
Nicknamed “the pearl of Africa”, Uganda, a country bordering the Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania, Kenya, South Sudan, and Rwanda, is still very much preserved from mass tourism.
Among the places to visit absolutely, when you love nature: the impenetrable forest of Bwindi. Located in the southwest of the country, it is home to one of the most beautiful national parks in the world, and is one of the richest ecosystems in Africa. There are thus 348 species of birds, 220 species of butterflies, more than 1,000 species of different plants and flowers, not to mention 120 species of mammals. Including mountain gorillas. So leave your echtgeld casino app 20Bet and start visiting this amazing forest!
Like its neighbor Rwanda, Uganda is one of the few countries where it is possible to observe gorillas in their natural environment. The only difference: the permit to observe these great primates costs much more in Rwanda than in Uganda. The emotion is at its height when your eyes meet those of these gentle giants.
Kibale National Park
Another famous national park in Uganda: Kibale. Located in the west of the country, it is home to a humid tropical forest of 776 km2, located between 1,100 and 1,600 meters above sea level.
There are many animals, such as African forest elephants, leopards, and many birds. But the stars of Kibale are above all the primates, and in particular the chimpanzees. It is also possible to go on a trek, accompanied by a park ranger, to discover chimpanzees in their natural environment. Among the instructions to remember once in the forest, never imitate the cry of a monkey, you never know what a chimpanzee might understand, or how he might react…
Queen Elizabeth National Park
When you go to Africa on a safari, you inevitably start looking for the “Big Five”, namely leopards, buffaloes, elephants, rhinos… and lions. If these big cats are usually screwed to the ground, those of Queen Elizabeth National Park have a unique characteristic: they climb trees.
In addition to these climbing lions, you can observe extremely varied landscapes in this 20,000 hectare park, located not far from Kibale and Bwindi. The tropical forests, the lakes, or the arid plains are yours. Without forgetting many other animal species to admire (there are also the Big 5 almost complete).
Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary
Located in northwestern Uganda, the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary is a private reserve that works for the conservation of the white rhinoceros. Apart from this sanctuary, these large mammals have indeed completely disappeared from the country. Accompanied by a ranger, you will go for a walk to observe these large herbivores up close, without any barrier. An impressive encounter!
Semuliki National Park
Located in southwestern Uganda, on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Semuliki National Park is one of the country’s newest national parks. The plant and animal biodiversity are impressive, including many species of birds.
Among the attractions of the place, there are also the Sempaya hot springs, a hot spring that can exceed 100°C. To get there, you will have to take a short walk through the forest. The opportunity, if you are lucky, to see monkeys. Once arrived, surprise, your guide will take eggs and bananas out of their bag, to plunge them into the spring. Food comes out with a salty taste. Time for tasting!
