Queen Elizabeth Safari
The Queen Elizabeth National Park is situated at the base of the Rwenzori Mountains in Uganda
and covers 2090 sq km. Affectionately known as the QEII, the Queen Elizabeth National Park
offers an East African game park with crater-dotted hills and open grassland.
It supports an abundance of wildlife, including elephant, lion, leopard
and the unique Ugandan antelope, the kob.
The park's dominant feature is the 32km long Kazinga
Channel that links Lake Edward to Lake George. The Kazinga Channel is said to
contain the world's largest concentration of hippos and numerous Nile crocodiles
– all easily viewed from a boat cruise.
The park is home to more than
a quarter of Africa’s total birdlife. With more than 560 species of
bird within its borders, the park is a bird watcher’s paradise!
A Queen Elizabeth Safari offers the opportunity to see game in unusual
landscapes and the park is
one of East Africa's best kept secrets. The animals
here aren't being hounded by dime-a-dozen minibuses.
