DAY 2: DRIVE TO KIDEPO VALLEY NATIONAL PARK (9 – 10 hrs)
Today you will start the long drive from Entebbe to Kidepo Valley National park. Gazetted as a national park in 1962, it has a profusion of big game and hosts over 77 mammal species as well as around 475 bird species. Kidepo is Uganda’s most isolated national park, but the few who make the long journey north through the wild frontier region of Karamoja would agree that it is also the most magnificent. Kidepo ranks among Africa’s finest wildernesses with a picturesque savannah landscape extending far beyond the gazetted area, towards horizons outlined by distant mountain ranges. Depending on your time of arrival, you may have a short game drive in the park.
