Murchison Falls National Park

Uganda's largest national park, named for the point where the Nile forces itself through a narrow gorge and drops into a thunderous 43-metre falls.

Key Experiences

• Game drives on the northern savannah
• Boat cruise to the base of the falls
• Top-of-the-falls hike
• Chimpanzee tracking in nearby Budongo Forest
• Birding, including shoebill stork sightings

Getting There

About 4–5 hours by road from Kampala, or a short domestic flight to Pakuba airstrip.
