Background Information on the 3 Days Uganda Wildlife Adventure Safari

Queen Elizabeth National Park

The park covers an area of about 1978 km2. Its position provides a magnificent view of the Rift Valley floor that occupies Lake Edward and Gorge. It is well known to be the habitat of about 95 mammals along with 612 species of birds. Formerly, a historian known as Douglas Willocks talked about the various features that lead to the formation of the Park in 1952.

This area was strategically located with a stunning view of mount Rwenzori, the plains, and the campsite’s jagged mass of mountains that are good for activities such as hiking. On the other side of lake Edward, there is a famous hill known as Mitumbe that looks out to Congo. Its beauty is signified by changing colors from blue to green, with gentle slopes, distant and this makes it become the center of darkness in Africa.

The eastern part of the park is characterized by peaceful green escarpments that are acquired from the western rift valley. The features are well covered with Savannah making it a beautiful place full of nature euphorbia trees.
