Kidepo Savannah Lodge is a rustic yet comfortable eco-lodge located just 500 meters outside the Kalokudo Gate of Kidepo Valley National Park in northeastern Uganda. It offers travelers a front-row seat to one of Africa’s most remote and spectacular wilderness areas, known for its dramatic landscapes and abundant wildlife.

The lodge features twelve safari tents on raised decks, each with en-suite bathrooms, hot showers, and private verandas overlooking the Narus Valley. Additionally, there are nine non-self-contained tents with shared facilities for budget-conscious travelers. All accommodations are designed to blend into the natural surroundings, offering a peaceful and immersive experience.

The central thatched dining area and lounge serve as the heart of the lodge, where guests can enjoy freshly prepared meals and sundowners with panoramic views of the park. The menu includes a mix of local and international cuisine, and the staff are known for their warm hospitality and attention to detail.

Activities from the lodge include guided game drives, nature walks, birdwatching, and cultural visits to the nearby Karamojong communities. Wildlife sightings often include lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and large herds of buffalo, making Kidepo one of Uganda’s most rewarding safari destinations.

Despite its remote location, Kidepo Savannah Lodge is accessible by road (albeit a long journey) or by charter flights to Kidepo airstrip. The lodge’s eco-friendly ethos, stunning views, and proximity to wildlife make it a top choice for adventurous travelers looking to explore Uganda’s wild northeast.

Whether you’re a solo explorer, a couple, or part of a guided safari like Gorilla Page Safaris, Kidepo Savannah Lodge offers an unforgettable experience in one of Africa’s last true wildernesses.
