Occupying an isolated slice of Ugandan territory beyond the Rwenzori, this forested park represents the eastern most tract of the Congo’s Great Ituri forest. This is an exceptionally exciting destination for bird and primate watchers. The 441 recorded bird species include 216 forest birds and 80 Central African species found in few, if any, other forests in East Africa. Black Dwarf Hornbill, Yellow Throated Nector, Shining Blue Kingfisher are just a few random highlights cited by the park’s experienced guides. In addition, an astonishing 5 species of primate can be found within 6km of the primeval hot springs that bubble out of the rift valley floor at Sempaya
