Safari from Kasese

Kasese is the Rift Valley and Rwenzori gateway on the road into Queen Elizabeth National Park.

It locates the park within a working western Ugandan corridor rather than presenting Mweya as an isolated wildlife island.

Rain, heat, road conditions, and current park guidance all shape travel through the Rift Valley.

The circuit reuses the established Fort Portal–Kasese road before branching about 55 mapped kilometres to Mweya.
