Rhino Tracking At Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary

The Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary in Uganda is home to over 20 rhinos and offers a unique opportunity to track the endangered species. This sanctuary was established to protect and conserve the rhinos and help their population grow. The rhinos at Ziwa are habituated to human presence, making it easier to track them. Visitors can join a guided tour led by experienced rangers and walk through the sanctuary to see the rhinos up close. The tour usually lasts for about 2-3 hours and covers about 6-7 kilometers of walking. The tours are conducted early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the rhinos are most active.

Tracking rhinos in their natural habitat provides a once in a lifetime experience and a chance to learn about their behavior, habitat, and conservation efforts. The sanctuary also provides a habitat for other wildlife species like bushbuck, warthog, and over 350 species of birds, making it a great destination for wildlife enthusiasts.

Visiting the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary supports the conservation efforts and helps protect the species from poaching. It's a unique opportunity to support the survival of rhinos and learn about the efforts to conserve them.
