Go To Africa Safaris
Discover Uganda beyond the usual safari vehicle with walking and cycling safaris that bring you closer to nature, local communities and everyday life. Travel at a slower pace, explore scenic trails and enjoy a more personal connection with the landscapes and people you encounter along the way.
Walking safaris offer an opportunity to explore Uganda on foot with experienced local guides. Discover natural surroundings, learn about plants and wildlife, and appreciate the smaller details often missed when travelling by vehicle. Depending on the location, walks may take you through forest trails, savannah landscapes, community paths and scenic countryside.
Popular areas for walking experiences include Lake Mburo National Park, where guided nature walks and wildlife encounters provide a different perspective on the African wilderness, as well as the foothills and trails around Mount Elgon.
Cycling safaris combine adventure, scenery and cultural discovery. Ride through rural villages, rolling hills, plantations and countryside roads while meeting local people and experiencing daily life along the route.
Lake Mburo National Park offers guided cycling experiences in designated areas, while the countryside around Fort Portal and Mount Elgon provides opportunities to explore Uganda’s beautiful rural landscapes.
Each experience is planned according to your interests, fitness level, route and local conditions. Walking and cycling trips can be arranged as short excursions or included in a longer Uganda safari. Depending on the location, you may need suitable walking shoes, comfortable clothing, sun protection and drinking water. Safety briefings and local guidance help you prepare for your adventure.
