Lake Bunyonyi: Uganda's Most Scenic Escape

self drive to Lake Bunyonyi

Nestled in the highlands of southwestern Uganda near the town of Kabale, Lake Bunyonyi is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful lakes in Africa. Often called the "Place of Many Little Birds," the lake sits at approximately 1,962 meters above sea level and is dotted with 29 picturesque islands, each with its own story and charm. The cool, misty climate is a welcome contrast to Uganda's lowland heat, making it a favorite retreat for both local and international travelers. Visitors come to canoe between islands, hike the terraced hillsides, birdwatch along the shores, or simply unwind in one of the many lakeside lodges and campsites that frame this breathtaking landscape. Unlike Uganda's major national parks, Lake Bunyonyi offers a quieter, more intimate kind of beauty — one that lingers long after you've left.
