Semuliki National Park is located in Bwamba County, a remote part of the Bundibugyo District, in western Uganda. It was made a national park in October 1993 and is one of Uganda's newest national parks. 194 km2 (75 sq mi) of East Africa's only lowland tropical rainforest is found in the park.

Semuliki National Park lies on Uganda's border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The Rwenzori Mountains are to the south-east of the park, while Lake Albert is to the park's north.

The Semliki Valley contains numerous features associated with central rather than eastern Africa. Thatched huts are shaded by West African oil palms; the Semliki River (which forms the international boundary) is a miniature version of the Congo River, the forest is home to numerous Central African wildlife species, and the local population includes a Batwa pygmy community that originated from the Ituri. As a result, this park provides a taste of Central Africa without having to leave Uganda.

While Semuliki’s species have been accumulating for over 25,000 years, the park contains evidence of even older processes. Hot springs bubble up from the depths to demonstrate the powerful subterranean forces that have been shaping the rift valley during the last 14 million years.

Life in the woodland of Semliki is implausible mostly for bird watching, butterfly, primates and plant lovers. Strolling through this woodland, you pilot to River Semliki meanders, the only one in East Africa. A horde of forest mammals such as elephants, buffaloes, leopards, primates, Water Chevrotain, Beecroft’s Anomalure or Zenker's Flying Mouse or a wide array of forest & water birds comes to your view while at the park.
“Incredible scenery, hot springs, jungle walk, primate viewing and birding are some of the major attractions in Semliki National Park. You certainly don’t want to miss the opportunity to spend 3 to 5 days camping & hiking in the only true forest in East Africa” said the chief travel consultant of Exclusive African Safaris.
