Great stopover
Overall rating
3/5

I asumed it was going to be a mediocre experience with just a good location but it ended up having a nice variety of animals: zebras, giraffes, impalas, topis, waterbucks, warthogs, monkeys and ankoles. Not the usual big 5 but very enjoyable nonetheless. Convinced my guide to drive by since I had some hours to spare on my way to the airport and it was delightful. Great stopover to complement what I had already seen.

Some sceneries were amazing while other sections of the park were too bushy, but they seem to be "taking care" of that since there were big chunks of the side-road having been burned down, or something like the sort. Roads were bad.

Lake Mburo wasn't as beautiful as other parts of Uganda but we had just come from "the Lakes" area of the country so we had a rather skewed view. Lake Mburo has a lot of zebras and antelope, which were fun to see. It's a good stopover between Bwindi and Kampala, but probably not someplace I would go out of my way to see.

lots of zebras and thick brush
Overall rating
3/5

We stayed at the UWA bandas which were quaint and clean enough. we visited this park to see zebras since we hadn't seen them yet and we weren't disappointed. there is some new invasive plant that is taking over and making through brush so thick you can barely see wildlife from the road.

Although Lake Mburo National Park is one of Uganda’s smallest parks we enjoyed the great lake setting and large populations of impala, zebra and buffalo. The highlight for us was a sunset walking tour with a ranger that allowed us to get closer to the animals.
