Murchison Falls National Park - Nyumbu Beyond Journeys

Murchison Falls National Park, located in northwestern Uganda, is the largest and one of the most stunningly diverse national parks in the country. Encompassing an area of approximately 3,893 square kilometers, this magnificent wilderness is bisected by the mighty Nile River, creating a dramatic centerpiece with the awe-inspiring Murchison Falls.

Visitors can expect to encounter iconic species such as elephants, lions, giraffes, hippos, and crocodiles, alongside over 450 bird species, including the rare shoebill stork.

Rich in history and ecological significance, Murchison Falls National Park is not just a destination for wildlife lovers; it also holds cultural and geological treasures that make it an essential stop for any traveler exploring Uganda
