We’re pleased as punch that the Kyaninga Triathlon have decided, for the first time, to open up the amazing day into a week-long event, especially for international adventurers to explore Uganda!
The event is, like the marathon, entirely not for profit and based at Kyaninga Lodge. They’ve asked us to spread the word and so spreading the word we are! The event has been run eight times before, so on May 19th 2018, be part of a very slick operation!
Duathlon & 5k Run
If swimming doesn’t float your boat (tenuous water-themed joke but I tried!), there is also a duathlon. And if cycling doesn’t…ring your bell (??), there’s also a 5k run around a beautiful crater lake.
Yes they have thought of it all – maximum enjoyment and getting involved is the name of the game!
Safaris
As if competing in a tri / duathlon or 5k in Uganda wasn’t incredible enough, the package also includes a trek with chimpanzees and a boat safari and game drive.
Trek with Chimps in the Wild
Kibale National Forest is one hour from Kyaninga Lodge and is the best place to see primates in the wild, in Africa. All of Africa! Trust us when we say this experience is WOW! You’ll break into small groups with guides and then start trekking through the forest. You’ll find groups of Chimps doing their thing and follow them as they interact, eat, fight, climb and play.
Game Drive and Boat Safari
Queen Elizabeth Country Park is famed in Uganda for its elephant and hippo population. Enjoy a drive through the enormous park, spot buffalo, warthogs, cob, crane and even lions before having lunch overlooking the water. Then board a boat to see hippos, elephants, crocodiles and birds close up!
