Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary is a collaborative effort between Rhino Fund Uganda (a Ugandan NGO committed to the restoration of Uganda’s rhino population) and the Uganda Wildlife Authority.
The sanctuary offers a secure place where rhino populations can be expanded by breeding, protected from human and non-human predators and gradually be re-introduced into Uganda’s national parks, while at the same time allowing the public to enjoy these majestic animals. The sanctuary also provides a safe haven for a healthy population of smaller game species, notably the beautiful bush buck and an abundance of wetland birdlife, including the rare and elusive shoebill stork.
This day trip provides the opportunity to track and observe Uganda’s only White Rhino population on foot within the sanctuary.
Please be at the designated reception by 6.30am at the latest. Depart at 6.45am in a customized pop-top safari minibus with driver/guide.
Tracking and viewing the rhinos usually involves a short drive followed by 1.5 – 2 hours walking and viewing with a ranger. The total activity time will vary according to where the rhinos are currently situated within the sanctuary but you will be able to enjoy an hour in the close vicinity of the rhinos once found. Closed shoes, long trousers and insect repellent are strongly recommended.
