Pian Upe: Land Of The Karamojong
Overall rating
1/5

Pian Upe Wildlife Reserve lies in the Karamoja region of Northeast Uganda. This area had security issues until quite recently, but it is now safe and being developed for tourism. On my quick visit in the region, I found very little wildlife present. I guess the area isn’t very well protected and poaching is rampant. The road network is also very limited. The Karamojong people of this region are traditional nomadic pastoralists. A visit to one of their villages near the base of Mount Kadam or Mount Moroto is recommended, and maybe a more valid reason to come up to this remote corner of the country than a safari.
