Lake Mburo National Park
Safari in Uganda:
Lake Mburo is the smallest of Uganda's
Savannah Parks, but that does not mean anything when it comes to the
abundance of wildlife that roams here. There are zebras,
impalas, elands, topi and buffaloes. If birding is your fancy,
the rare shoebill stork can be found here quite often. Do not
forget the National bird of
Uganda, the Crested Crane, wherever you
turn you will find them.
If you enjoy fishing, get ready for
some sweet tilapia, one of my favorite fish and a delight if
prepared just right. As you fish, you will be able to see the
hippopotamus just near you frolicking in the waters of this
wonderful lake...situated in the Mbarara district about 3 1/2 hours
Kampala. It is the perfect combination with Bwindi Forest and
its gorilla tracking.
Here you collect yourself after an
intensive hike through the hills of Bwindi...Lake Mburo has been a
respite for thousand of travelers...Those in search of birds are
very fond of this lovely park,
The lake is famous for its richness in
bio-diversity - 68 different mammals, from leopards to jackals.
My
favorite is its vegetations...I happen to love Acacia trees, they
do something within me.
There are a number of game drives one can
embark on to see Impala, along with warthogs, topis and zebra.
Lake Mburo is the perfect overnight
rest-over and there are various places to choose from.
