The Top Things to Do and See in Kidepo Valley National Park – Africa’s Hidden Gem according to CNN – No other park like it in Africa – Africa like it was 50 some years ago – called a “Long-Forgotten Eden” – a place like you might imagine Africa to be, but only better.
Kidepo Valley National Park – is a must-visit for those that want to see Authentic, Raw, Untouched Africa without the crowds – there is no other Park like it in all of Africa.
Hard to get to – You either fly in which is very expensive or you drive to the park – and the drive takes a lot of time due to the distance. The accommodation choices include overly priced Apoka Safari Lodge, midrange Adere safari lodge or the fairly priced great Value Kidepo Savannah Lodge
Reasons why many bypass the Park in spite of being the best area for wildlife in Uganda plus unique and enriching cultural experience with Karamojong people and the Ik People who live on top of Mount Morungole near the park.
Visit Kidepo Valley National Park where the stunning scenery simply takes your breath away – and a stillness only broken by the cry from the wild – the sounds of the winds sweeping through the valley – you are amazed that such a place as Kidepo Valley Park even exists – an abundance of wildlife – stunning scenery and an absence of people, no caravans of vehicles meandering down the game tracks- it is simply you – a scene from Karen Blixen or Ernest Hemingway’s Africa – mindful of Africa as you imagined it but rarely find in the 21st Century.
Lions in abundance-especially during the dry season of the year (even some tree climbing ones) – Elephant and Buffalo herds roaming – Giraffe – leopards – cheetahs – wild dogs – ostriches –the bat-eared fox, striped hyena, aardwolf, caracal, and hunting dog – antelopes such as eland, bushbuck, bush duskier, defassa waterbuck, bohor reedbuck, Jackson’s hartebeest and oribi.
There is an abundance of birds including many raptors – Kidepo Valley National Park has much to offer to the visitor who flies in or the stamina to drive in – but what awaits the visitor here is well worth the flight or drive here. This remote park in Uganda offers the best of the Wild of Africa – it is beyond Kodak moments – it is a true experience in the African Wild. Enjoy a Visit to Kidepo Valley Park with us on Safari.
