Bugoma Forest I Nguse River Camp
Deep in Western Uganda, where the Albertine Rift drops toward Lake Albert, Bugoma Forest is still holding its ground.
One of Uganda’s oldest forest reserves (gazetted way back in 1932), Bugoma is home to over 500 chimpanzees, colobus monkeys, the rare Uganda mangabey found nowhere else on Earth, and more than 220 bird species. Towering ironwood trees, tangled lianas, and a canopy that seems to breathe — this is wild Africa, largely undiscovered.
Base yourself at Nguse River Camp, tucked right on the riverbank that feeds into Lake Albert. Fall asleep to the sound of the forest, wake up for a chimp trek, and spend your evenings around the fire swapping stories from the day.
