Activité en Ouganda
Safari en avion
Évitez les longues routes poussiéreuses en embarquant à bord d'un petit avion qui vous mènera directement vers des pistes d'atterrissage isolées situées au cœur des zones sauvages de l'Ouganda.
- Que se passe-t-il ?
Vous arrivez à l'aéroport international d'Entebbe ou dans un aéroport régional pour embarquer à bord d'un avion Caravan moderne. Au moment du décollage, vous admirez une vue imprenable sur le lac Victoria, les rivières sinueuses et les paysages changeants. Après un vol court et sans encombre, le pilote atterrit sur une piste d'atterrissage en pleine brousse où votre guide Huko Safaris vous attend avec un véhicule décapotable pour vous conduire directement à votre lodge ou vous emmener immédiatement en safari.
- Ce que l'on ressent
En l'espace de quelques minutes, on passe brusquement de l'agitation urbaine à un isolement total. Les légères vibrations de l'avion à hélice procurent un véritable sentiment d'exploration. En regardant par le hublot, on prend conscience, dans le calme, de l'immensité et du caractère préservé de l'Afrique de l'Est.
- À qui s'adresse-t-il ?
Idéal pour les voyageurs haut de gamme, les passionnés de photographie et les visiteurs disposant d'un temps de vacances limité qui souhaitent profiter au maximum de leurs journées sur place.
- Bon à savoir
Des limites strictes en matière de bagages s'appliquent à bord des petits avions nationaux : la limite est généralement fixée à quinze kilogrammes par passager, dans des sacs souples. Les vols dépendent des conditions météorologiques et permettent un gain de temps considérable, transformant un trajet de dix heures en voiture en un simple vol d'une heure.

Où faire Safari en avion en Ouganda
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
Many luxury travel brochures heavily use romantic adjectives to describe Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, but its true magic lies in its geological antiquity. Unlike most African forests that changed into savannah during the last Ice Age, this wedge of the Albertine Rift remained trapped in a pocket of moisture for over twenty-five thousand years. Because this ecosystem never died back, evolution never paused, creating a primordial sanctuary where ancient volcanic ridges hold roughly half of the world's mountain gorillas alongside wild chimpanzees. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and when you step into this forest, you are entering an unbroken biological time capsule that has looked exactly like this since mammoths roamed the earth. The internal geography of these 321 square kilometers creates distinctly different experiences depending on where you base your stay or trek in the four sectors of the park. The forest floor climbs and drops from 1,160 meters to over 2,600 meters above sea level, splitting the park into microclimates across four tracking sectors. The northern sector of [Buhoma](/uganda/national-parks/bwindi-impenetrable-national-park/buhoma-sector/) offers warmer temperatures and gentler valley floors ideal for a more relaxed pace, whereas the southern ridges of [Nkuringo](/uganda/national-parks/bwindi-impenetrable-national-park/nkuringo-sector/) and [Rushaga](/uganda/national-parks/bwindi-impenetrable-national-park/rushaga-sector/) present strenuous vertical challenges that reward active hikers with sweeping rift views. [Ruhija](/uganda/national-parks/bwindi-impenetrable-national-park/ruhija-sector/) sector, in the eastern part of the Park, is the highest and coldest sector, sitting at an elevation of about 2,340 to 2,500 meters above sea level. This makes it arguably the most topographically beautiful region for visitors. When you come to trek, we pair you with the specific trailhead that matches your personal physical comfort, ensuring your encounter with the gorillas is exhilarating rather than exhausting. One thing that surprises many of our guests is the complete absence of a buffer zone around the park perimeter. The canopy ends on a definitive, sharp line, met by the cultivated, terraced tea estates of the local communities. From the terrace of your luxury lodge, your view gives you a depth of context that standard wildlife viewing simply cannot match.
Kidepo Valley National Park
Kidepo Valley National Park is Uganda’s most remote and beautiful savanna wilderness, spanning 1,442 square kilometers in the extreme northeastern Karamoja region. Bordering South Sudan and Kenya, the park features a dramatic landscape dominated by the Narus and Kidepo valleys, flanked by the soaring Mount Morungole and rugged mountain ranges. Because it is isolated, it receives a fraction of the tourists found in western Uganda, providing an exclusive, untamed safari atmosphere reminiscent of Africa fifty years ago. The park protects a diverse ecosystem of montane forests and semi-arid savanna grasslands. It is home to 86 mammal species and over 460 bird species, including many found nowhere else in the country.
Entebbe
Entebbe sits on a peninsula in Lake Victoria, 35 kilometers south of Kampala, and is home to Entebbe International Airport, the arrival and departure point for nearly every Uganda safari, and it is where you'll land if you're coming into the country. Most itineraries spend a first or last night here rather than pushing straight through Kampala's traffic, to allow for rest from a long flight or prepare and rest before one.
Murchison Falls National Park
Murchison Falls National Park is Uganda's largest and oldest national park, centered on the Nile River as it forces its way through a narrow, 7-meter-wide gorge to form the world's most powerful waterfall: Murchison Falls. The Victoria Nile bisects the park into two distinct ecosystems: the open, game-rich northern savanna and the dense southern tropical woodlands. President Idi Amin temporarily renamed it Kabalega National Park in honor of King Kabalega of the Bunyoro Kingdom before it was reverted to Murchison Falls. While four of the "Big Five" (elephants, lions, leopards, and buffaloes) can be seen in the park, the rhinos are not here and can instead be tracked on foot at the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, south of the park. In addition, the southern edge of Murchison Falls National Park encompasses Budongo Forest, which protects a large community of habituated chimpanzees and extensive mahogany trees.
