Murchison Falls National Park
Uganda's largest National Park protects achunk of untamed African savannah bisected by the mighty River Nile. It is named for the dramatic Murchison Falls,where the world's longest river explodes violently through a narrow cleft in the Rift Valley escarpment to plunge into a frothing pool 43m below. Wildlife populations have largely recovered fromthe poaching of the 1980s; in the lush borassus grassland to the north of the Nile, elephant, buffalo, giraffe and avariety of antelope are regularly encountered on game drives, while lion are seen with increasing frequency. In the South East, Rabongo Forest is home tochimps and other rainforest creatures.The Nile itself hosts one of Africa's densest hippo and crocodile populations,and a dazzling variety of water birds including the world's most accessible wild population of the rare shoebill stork.
