Lake
Mburo National Park is the nearest game park from Kampala City, located 240 kilometers
by road in western Uganda. Reachable within about a two and half hours’ drive,
the park offers visitors an opportunity to see some of Uganda's wildlife and
beautiful countryside in just one day of your Uganda
Safari.
But
let’s talk about the amazing beautiful zebras in Lake Mburo National Park,
there is nowhere else in Uganda you will find the biggest group of zebras and
Impalas like in Lake Mburo.
Before
even making an entrance through any of Park’s gazetted entrance gates, as you
close in to the park you will start seeing these amazing zebras some even mix
with the local farmers’ Ankole Long Horned Cattle common in the area as they
graze together. Foreign tourist and even citizens are required to pay park fees before proceeding into the
park and this can be done at any of the three main entrance gates, that is
Sanga, Nshaara or Kanyinanshaara gates.
And
it is quite amazing seeing these zebras snuggle on a beautiful evening game drive
as they graze and the energetic young ones hopping around in satisfaction after
suckling their mothers.
And
to those who love taking photos of these beautiful zebras, you will surely get
that moment as these black and white crossed wonderful animals are not really
scared of your safari cars as you drive through the park as most of the other
animals will be keeping a distance, some will actually pose as they gaze at
your movements and other will just continue grazing and not be bothered by your
presence. Make your trip to lake Mburo National Park and take your best shot of
a zebra to proudly show to family and friends back home.
