After about 5 hours of driving, you will stop in Fort Portal town for your lunch and then continue to Queen Elizabeth National Park. Queen Elizabeth is Uganda’s second largest park and is located base of the majestic Rwenzori Mountain range, adjacent to Lake Edward and Lake George. The park has prolific wildlife, including Gazelle, Uganda Kob, Warthog, and Waterbuck; Lions are often sighted both in and at the entrance to the park. Be prepared for huge numbers of Hippos and Elephants, and keep your eyes peeled for a leopard lazing in the sunshine. Your lodge is located on the edge of Queen Elizabeth National Park, overlooking the spectacular Kazinga Channel. Watch wildlife at the waterhole from your own private verandah and fall asleep to the roaring of lions on the distant savannah. This truly is Africa! Time permitting; you will go for a short game drive into the park.
