Kidepo Valley National Park sits in the far north-east of Uganda, near the borders of South Sudan and Kenya. It is remote, rugged and rarely crowded.
You may see lions, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo and ostriches, and Karamojong communities live nearby. The landscape is a mix of golden savannah, rocky hills and wide valleys.
It is not the easiest park to reach, but it is one of the most rewarding.
