ARRIVEE IN ENTEBBE

Steps: Entebbe

The approach to Entebbe airport, over a string of small islands dotted in the iridescent waters of Lake Victoria, is spectacular.

ENTEBBE - MABAMBA SWAMP - LAKE MBURO NATIONAL PARK

Clogged Beak

Steps: Marais De Mabamba

About 30 km from Entebbe lies the Mabamba Swamp, a vast depression that feeds fresh water into Lake Victoria. By rowing boat, with the help of a local guide, we will explore a labyrinth of canals and stretches of aquatic grass in search of the majestic hoofbeak (Balaeniceps rex), of which several specimens have settled here. The boat without motor allows us to move in silence, to have a better approach.

The road follows the shore of the lake, enters Kampala, and then turns eastwards in the middle of hills covered with tea and sugar cane fields. We take the road to the Lake Mburo National Park.


LAKE MBURO NATIONAL PARK - BWINDI NATIONAL PARK

Steps: Forêt Impénétrable De Bwindi

in the morning, departure towards the forest of Bwindi through a region of hills. The road will be more or less long depending on the sector of the mountain gorilla family visited.



GORILLAS IN BWINDI NATIONAL PARK - LAKE BUNYONYI

Mountain Gorillas

Steps: Lac Bunyonyi

The first light of dawn tears through the fog hanging on the mountain tops with their luxuriant vegetation. We are in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. With the help of a guide and trackers, we go in search of mountain gorillas. Vegetarians, loving humid forests, families of 8 to 20 individuals include a dominant male, adult females and several adolescents. The silverback male can reach a weight of 250 kg and a height of 1.70 m. Debonair and peaceful, the anthropoids observe us while feeding in their plant world.

After your trek transfer to Lake Bunyionyi. a few kilometers from the town of Kabale is Lake Bunyonyi. It is the deepest crater lake in the country (900 m). Located at an altitude of 1,840 m, it has several islands. Bunyonyi means "region of small birds" and the lake is particularly rich in water birds. The place is absolutely beautiful. Lake Bunyonyi is also famous for its crayfish
