During a swamp walk in the Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary in Kibale National Park you discover the fascinating wetlands while you walk for 3 hours over enchanting swamp paths and wooden boardwalks.
During this 4.5-kilometre walk, you can encounter over 200 species of birds, including special species such as the iconic great blue turaco and rare papyrus gonolek. The sanctuary also is the home of 8 species of primates, including the black and white Colobus monkey, the red Colobus monkey, the red-tailed monkey, the olive baboon and the vervet monkey. Watch these mischievous creatures swinging in the trees as you venture deeper into paradise, while you also keep an eye out for the elusive sitatunga antelope and multiple curious otters.
With knowledgeable local guides leading the way, this swamp walk offers an unforgettable opportunity to connect with the beauty of Uganda’s wilderness. You can start your walk at all hours of the day, but please note that the best times for viewing are early morning and late afternoon.
