Lake Mburo National Park is situated in western Uganda, approximately 240 kilometres from Kampala, the capital city. It covers an area of 370 square kilometres and is nestled in the heart of the Ankole region.

The park’s centrepiece is Lake Mburo, a scenic freshwater lake that stretches across a significant portion of the park. It is home to a rich variety of wildlife, including zebras, impalas, buffalos, hippos, and crocodiles. The park also boasts an impressive bird population, with over 350 recorded species, making it a paradise for birdwatchers.

Visitors to Lake Mburo National Park can partake in a range of activities. Game drives offer the chance to explore the park’s diverse ecosystems and encounter its abundant wildlife up close. Guided nature walks provide an opportunity to explore the park on foot, accompanied by experienced guides who share their knowledge about the flora and fauna. Boat safaris on Lake Mburo are a popular option for observing hippos, crocodiles, and a plethora of bird species. For the adventurous, horseback riding and biking safaris are also available.

Lake Mburo National Park can be visited year-round, but the dry seasons (December to February and June to August) are often preferred. During these periods, wildlife congregates around water sources, making it easier to spot them.

However, it’s essential to check weather conditions and consult with tour operators for the most accurate information.
