Kidepo Valley National Park

Kidepo Valley National Park

Kidepo Valley National Park

  • Size: 1,442km2

  • The park’s altitude ranges between 914m and 2,750m above sea level.

  • The park contains two rivers – Kidepo and Narus – which disappear in the dry season, leaving just pools for the wildlife.

    The local communities around the park include pastoral Karamojong people, similar to the Maasai of Kenya, and the IK, a hunter-gatherer tribe whose survival is threatened.



    Kidepo Valley National Park lies in the rugged, semi arid valleys between Uganda’s borders with Sudan and Kenya, some 700km from Kampala. Gazetted as a national park in 1962, it has a profusion of big game and hosts over 77 mammal species as well as around 475 bird species.
