SUMMARY:Mpanga Forest Halloween Camping
DESCRIPTION:UPCOMING TRIP FOR ABSOLUTELY EVERYONE (Saturday 29th October to Sunday 30th October)!!… with an eerie twist…… \nAn affordable weekend of camping\, options to walk/run through a serene forest combined with some Halloween festivities?…. Sounds fun? Then read on…… \nWe are planning a MCU trip for a night in the beautiful Mpanga Forest\, with a fancy dress Halloween BBQ planned under the spooky forest canopy on the Saturday night….. \nMpanga Forest Reserve is about 1 hour west of Kampala\, near Mpigi town\, along the Masaka Road. Mpanga is recorded to have over 500 tree species and shrubs\, with some trees estimated to be 100-years old. There are over 200 bird species recorded in this reserve. The common birds to watch include\, hornbill\, spotted greenbul\, black and white casqued\, African pied hornbills\, Uganda woodland warbler\, great blue turaco and the ross turaco. Mammals found in Mpanga include; bushbuck\, red-tailed monkey and flying squirrels. Several butterfly species can also be observed throughout the reserve. \nWalking and running trails of various lengths can be enjoyed throughout the forest\, and on the Saturday night\, a fancy dress Halloween BBQ party will be organised in the spooky forest…. (don’t forget your fancy dress costume!) \nThe trip will run from Saturday 29th October to Sunday 30th October\, which gives ample time to explore the tranquil forest and surrounds. \nAccommodation and costs:  \nWe will stay at the basic\, but serene\, Mpanga Eco-Tourism Centre camp. As part of the MCU\, we have been fortunate to be able to negotiate some great rates\, and for a total of just UGX50k per person\, you will enjoy: \n\nEntrance fee to the forest\nCamping (bring your own tent)\nForest walk (short\, or long- as you wish)\nSaturday or Sunday lunch (local meal)\nEntry to Halloween BBQ party (please bring own meat/ vegetables to throw on the BBQ).\nSunday breakfast.\n\nThere are also options to upgrade to a dorm bed\, or a twin banda (for UGX10-20k per person\, depending on accommodation choice) \nCold showers are available\, and there are eco-friendly toilets. And if you ask nicely\, they will heat a bucket of water for you to enjoy a warm shower under the forest canopy. \nBeers and sodas are available for purchase at the camp\, although there are no refrigeration facilities\, so if you are partial to a cold drink\, a cool box/ esky might be a good idea J \nPoints to Note: \n\nIf you would like to bike\, the camp does not have bikes for rent\, so please bring your own.\nDon’t forget your fancy dress costume for the Halloween BBQ Party!!!\nAnd please also remember bug spray/ insect repellent and a torch J\n\nDirections: The camp can be found on google maps\, and is signposted off the main Masaka road on the right after Mpigi\, when heading from Kampala. \nContact: Any questions\, please contact Sally Holbrook at madsally@hotmail.com or on 0752 184057. \nPlease follow the link to book (please only complete if you are 100% sure you will be attending): https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeV2zQy_au348Xm9Rw-2YiOWmGv7p6UW-8XT73BSmJJhcr23w/viewform \nHope to see you there!
