Kidepo Valley National Park

Kidepo Valley occupies a remote savanna basin in Uganda's northeastern corner on the South Sudan and Kenya borders, consistently cited by African safari specialists as one of the continent's most underrated parks. It harbours species absent from Uganda's other parks — cheetahs, striped hyenas, caracals, and aardwolves — alongside lions, elephants, and the largest eland herds in Uganda. The Narus and Namamukweny valley floodplains dry to pale gold in the dry season, producing a vast open landscape of considerable photographic quality.
