LAKE MBURO NATIONAL PARK

Lake Mburo National Park is a gem of a park, conveniently located close to the western highway that connects Kampala to the parks of western Uganda. Though the park is just 370km2 in size, its landscapes are varied and even a short drive is alive with interest and colour. You'll pass gallery forest, open savanna and acacia woodland, rock kopjes, seasonal and permanent swamps, and open water, as you search for the wealth. of wildlife they support. This includes species such as impala, Burchell's zebra, and eland that are not found elsewhere in western Uganda.

Lake Mburo National Park lies between the towns of Masaka and Mbarara in western Uganda, 228km from Kampala - about three and a half hours drive. Two gates enter the park from the Mbarara road. Approaching from Kampala, the turning to Nshara gate is 13kms past Lyantonde. The junction for Sanga gate is at Sanga trading centre, 27 kms past Lyantonde. Both junctions are clearly signposted. It is about 20 minutes drive from either gate to Rwonyo.

Uganda Wildlife Authority provides a range of budget accommodation in the park. On the eastern side of Lake Mburo, permanent tents are available at Rwonyo Rest Camp while a beautiful campsite is positioned on the lakeshore, 1 km to the south. Lakeside chalets will soon be available nearby at Arcadia Cottages.

Upmarket accommodation is found at the Mantana Tented Camp, which enjoys a hilltop location 3.5km north of Rwonyo, and at Mihingo Lodge which stands on a rocky kopje just outside the eastern boundary of the park.
