Queen Elizabeth National Park (QENP) is Uganda’s most accessible park. Set majestically in the shadow of the Rwenzori, flanking lakes, open savannah to rainforest, from dense papyrus swamps and brooding crater lakes to the vastness of Lake Edward, it is little wonder that QENP boasts one of the highest biodiversity ratings of any game reserve in the world!
Unlike some other parks in Africa, Queen Elizabeth National Park in Uganda offers a real reward in its ability to offer a diverse range of safari activities. A boat cruise along the Kazinga Channel is almost obligatory, given the rewarding game viewing and bird watching en-route, while Kyambura Gorge offers a green sliver of the forest to explore chimpanzees and other primates. Chimp tracking through the forest is available twice a day and makes a wonderful contrast with the savannah game viewing in the rest of the park.
Queen Elizabeth National Park combines easily with gorilla trekking in nearby Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park and chimpanzee tracking in Kibale Forest National Park.
