Situated on the equator, Uganda is known for its varied habitats (think flat savannah plains contrasting against tall misty mountains and lush rainforests). When it comes to an adventure vacation, there are few better destinations. The diverse topography provides an endless choice of activities and opportunities for wildlife spotting plus, dotted with luxury lodges, you won’t be found wanting.
Spend the day trekking up the Rwenzoris – Africa’s tallest mountain range. Peppered with beautiful glaciers, waterfalls and alpine lakes, it’s not these views that draw people here. Home to the critically endangered mountain gorillas, tracking them through this majestic habitat is one of Uganda’s most exciting experiences. Or, head out on an epic safari to spot tree-climbing lions.
