In the western arm of the Great East African Rift Valley, Queen Elizabeth National Park is centred around Lake Edward and Lake George. The launch trip along the Kazinga Channel is especially good for viewing hippo, buffalo, elephant and a vast array of birds. Around Ishasha, go on the hunt for the famous tree-climbing lions, which lounge nonchalantly on old fig trees.
The steeply forested walls of Kyambura are home not only to chimpanzees but also to the red-tailed monkey, black and white colobus, giant forest hog and many bird species. A half day walk down to the Gorge is a rewarding experience, not only for seeing chimpanzees but also to explore the beautiful river valley
With its famous tree climbing lions Ishasha is an idyllic retreat ideal for those who truly enjoy the wilderness.
Set on the edge of a crater lake the lodge blends in perfectly with the wooded surroundings of the Maramagambo forest.
Located on a peninsula overlooking the Kazinga Channel on one side and with spectacular views towards the Ruwenzori Mountains on the other.
