    Set against the stunning backdrop of Lake Kyaninga and the Rwenzori Mountains beyond, Kyaninga Lodge is the spectacular result of one man’s vision and six years of unwavering commitment to creating an experience of Africa’s beauty unlike anything else.

    You can experience the beauty and romance of this unexplored region, while staying in the height of luxury and elegance. Nine exclusive cottages made from hand carved logs, superb dining, and a wealth of adventures await.

    Set apart and raised on platforms, the Lodges’s nine cottages offer you privacy and tranquillity. Each spacious cottage comes with a choice of twin or double beds made up with the softest bed linen and feather pillows. An indoor seating area leads out to a private deck where you can enjoy morning tea or coffee with views over the lake and the Rwenzori Mountains. The en-suite bathrooms boast marble countertop basins set atop crafted Elgon olive pedestals, claw footed freestanding baths, and glass-walled showers. With modern solar power, you will always have hot water and electrical charging points.

    Kyaninga Lodge’s beautiful gardens are the creation of London-based landscape designer Imogen Jenkins. The gardens provide a stunning setting for relaxation, reflection, and space for games. There is even a lawn tennis court for you to enjoy. With amazing wildlife on your doorstep, take a guided walk around the beautiful Kyaninga Crater Lake and Forest. See how many species of primate you can spot.


      WHY WE LIKE IT? Fantastic location close to Kibale, making it perfect as a base for Chimp Trekking.

      HOW TO GET THERE? Kasese airstrip is the closest airstrip which is a 2 hour drive from the camp. The camp can also be reached by vehicle from Kampala.

      SPECIAL INTEREST: Chimpanzees. Spend the day following the troop and learning about these fascinating animals.



      Kibale National park is open for game viewing all year round but the best time to visit is in the dry seasons from June to September and December to February. March to may and September to November mark the wet season, where wildlife viewing is quite challenging, but it is a good time for bird watching.



      Begin exploring the wonders of this enchanted region of Africa with our top attraction – the Chimpanzee Safari in Kibale National Park. Deep in the evergreen rainforest of Kibale, you will come face to face with man’s closest living relative. Kibale forest is the best place in the world to see Chimpanzees in the wild. The forest is frequently used by documentary film-makers, including the great Attenborough. With the highest density of Chimpanzees in the world, and with 13 other rare primates, the enormous Kibale forest is a world treasure. Situated close to Kibale Forest, Kyaninga Lodge is the perfect place for you to explore this ancient wilderness.
