Located deep within the heart of Murchison Falls National Park, Papa’s Camp is nestled among beautiful Fig trees on the south bank of the River Nile. Named after Ernest ‘Papa’ Hemingway who nearly lost his life after two plane crashes in the area, Papa’s Camp reminds us of safari travel back in the day. The bush camp offers a spectacular wildlife experience that one can enjoy almost exclusively in untouched surroundings. The drive to the top of Murchison Falls is an easy 1.5-hour game drive away – full of lions, Buffalo, Giraffes, and many different antelope species such as Jackson’s Hartebeest, Waterbuck, Ugandan Kob, Oribi, and more.  With just 5 tents set along the river bank, the camp is a traditional bush camp that celebrates its remote location.  This is wilderness at its best, the heart and soul of what Wildplaces is all about.
