Lake Mburo National Park

Small and often overlooked, Lake Mburo National Park lacks some of the “wow” factor of the bigger parks, having no lions or elephants. However, the lack of large, potentially dangerous game provides opportunities for walking, riding and cycling within the park. There are a number of species not found elsewhere in Uganda such as zebra, eland and impala. Mburo is also one of the best parks for leopard and hyena, although sightings are often nocturnal. Birding highlights include African fish eagle, African finfoot, white-backed heron and large numbers of malachite kingfishers.
