Lunch is at the Lodge, followed by siesta while waiting for the next adventure.

Begin this wonderful way walking through some of the Park’s most popular hiking trails while enjoying breathtaking views across the different landscapes-Valleys, rolling hills, Lakes, thickets and savannah plains while continuing through different areas. The hiking trail also takes you to the famous salt-lick where many animals-bushbucks, Oribis, impalas, Cape buffaloes and others usually converge. From here, have lunch at the Lodge then leave for Kampala, arriving late evening. If you are not headed home yet, you will proceed to the next phase of your Ugandan safari but if your homebound flight is scheduled for this day, you will be dropped off at the Airport.
