Kibale National Park is the primate capital of East Africa and one of the top safari destinations in Uganda. Located in western Uganda near Fort Portal, this lush tropical rainforest is famous for its unforgettable chimpanzee trekking experiences. For travelers seeking an authentic Uganda safari, Kibale offers close encounters with wild chimpanzees in their natural habitat.
Home to over 1,500 chimpanzees and 13 primate species, including red colobus monkeys, L’Hoest’s monkeys, and black-and-white colobus, Kibale National Park is a must-visit destination for wildlife lovers and photographers.
