It consists of two sections – the northern and southern, which are divided by the Victoria Nile whose banks are host to plenty of wildlife, such as crocodiles, elephants, hippos, and Shoebill.

Savanna grasslands, acacia trees, Borassus palms, and riverine woodlands cover the entire northern part of Murchison whereas, the southern part comprises forest patches and woodland.

The park has a tropical and hot climate, with temperatures rising to 31°C/88°F during the day and cooling down to 18°C/64°F.

Capitulating Murchison Falls

The breathtaking Murchison Falls, which plunges 45m over rocky cliffs, and the famous big five – lions, elephants, leopards, hippos, and rhinos are the biggest draw to this park. Rhinos do not exist inside the park, but you can see them en route to it at the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary.
