[Campsites]
Several campsites have been established inside the
park. Those wishing to camp should bring camping
gears. Basic supplies are available at the nearest
market at Mwaya village within Mang'ula Division.
Campsites in the park are, apart from those situated closest to the Head Quarteres, very basic.
water will in most cases be taken from the river. We therefore recommend that visitors cater for their
own drinking water. Either by purchasing water in the village, or by bringing water filter or puryfying tablets.
