Aswa-Lolim – Wildnis mit Geschichte
Das einst florierende Wildreservat Aswa-Lolim wurde in den 1970er-Jahren unter dem Regime von Idi Amin entklassifiziert. Heute erstreckt sich dieses Gebiet über die Sub-Countys Purongo, Alero, Anaka und Koch-Goma. Trotz der zunehmenden Ausbreitung kommerzieller Landwirtschaft in diesem einstigen Jagdparadies führen wir weiterhin Jagden auf Nilbüffel, Uganda-Kob, Kuhantilope, Wasserbock, Oribi und Warzenschwein durch.
Aswa-Lolim liegt malerisch am östlichen Ufer des Nils und umfasst rund 45.000 Hektar. Es grenzt im Süden über 110 Kilometer an den Murchison-Falls-Nationalpark und verläuft über etwa 78 Kilometer entlang des Nils im Westen. Die Landschaft ist geprägt von sanft geschwungenen Graslandschaften mit Palmen, durchzogen von kleinen Tälern, Bächen und lichten Wäldern. In Flussnähe dominieren dichte Waldgebiete und weite Papyrussümpfe das Bild.
Unsere Jagden in Aswa-Lolim finden in der Regel von Januar bis Ende April/Mai statt. Die Jagd auf Sitatunga ist jedoch ganzjährig möglich.
Karamoja: The Ultimate Frontier for Buffalo Hunters
Expansive Hunting Grounds: Our Karamoja concessions span over 450,000 hectares, stretching from the renowned Kidepo Valley National Park to central Karamoja. This vast territory encompasses six districts: Karenga, Kitgum, Agago, Kaabong, Kotido, and Abim. The region is celebrated for its substantial buffalo populations, offering hunters unparalleled opportunities to pursue these formidable animals.
Diverse Game Species: Beyond buffalo, Karamoja teems with a rich variety of game, including Jackson’s hartebeest, Sudan oribi, eastern Bohor reedbuck, Chandler’s Mountain reedbuck, Gunther’s dik-dik, East African Defassa waterbuck, warthog, and the distinctive Sudan maneless zebra. Notably, enhanced anti-poaching efforts have led to more frequent sightings of lesser and greater kudu, enriching the hunting experience.
Strategic Camp Locations: Currently, we operate a hunting camp within the Karenga Community Wildlife Area, strategically positioned to access prime hunting zones. In 2024, we plan to expand our operations by establishing a second hilltop camp, further broadening our reach to additional prime hunting grounds. A third camp is slated for the Kalapata Community Wildlife Area, with a fourth envisioned in the Lipan Controlled Hunting Area. The Lipan area is particularly notable for its prime buffalo habitats, bordered by Kidepo Valley National Park and the Kidepo Game Reserve in South Sudan.
Rich Hunting Legacy: Karamoja’s hunting heritage is legendary, having been traversed by famed hunters like W.D.M. “Karamojo” Bell, who earned his nickname exploring this very wilderness. Today, the region continues to offer authentic and exhilarating hunting experiences reminiscent of Africa’s golden age of safari.
Optimal Hunting Seasons: The prime time for buffalo hunting in Karamoja is from December through April, when conditions are most favorable. During these months, hunters can expect optimal visibility and game movement, enhancing the chances of a successful hunt.
