The dry trails make the trekking experience more manageable and enjoyable.

If you are interested in bird watching, the months of November and April are ideal. During these periods, migratory birds visit Uganda, adding to the already impressive array of resident species. Locations like Mabamba Swamp and Kibale Forest National Park become hotspots for bird enthusiasts.
