Lake Bunyonyi is situated in the environs of the impenetrable forest of Bwindi, and the Mgahinga mountain ranges that are famous for gorilla tracking, being, at most, a comfortable two-hour drive, and offering an enchanting kind of atmosphere, different from the rain forests.

ACTIVITIES

Nature walks: Walk, jog or cycle round the perimeter of the island, to the sound of rippling water and birdsong.

Boat cruise and canoeing: They may also choose to canoe or boat-ride around the lake.

Historical and cultural tours: Visiting other islands such as “Akempene”, Bucuraniko and interesting cultural and natural sights, such as the Bukora Cave, the Batwa (Pygmies) and the Abaheesi (traditional black smiths) communities nearby.

Swimming: The Island has a swimming and diving deck, and the waters of Lake Bunyonyi are free of the hazard of Bilharzia. The lake is also free from the dangers of crocodiles, hippos or other threatening animals.

Bird-watching: This is our major activity, and even from the comfort of your verandah many species can be observed. But for a greater variety of birds, a boat-ride can be arranged to the neighbouring Nyombe Swamp. On you bird watching trip you are expected to watch more than 200 species of birds.

GUEST SERVICES

Restaurant

Delicious meals are prepared from fresh, organically grown vegetables. Fresh lake fish such as tilapia, catfish and the famous cray fish also feature prominently on the menu. Diners will enjoy the ambiance of our restaurant building set on the crest of the hill, or they can dine al fresco under the stars in the pleasant gardens.

Bar

A guest lounge adjoins the Restaurant, and guests can relax over a pre- or after-dinner drink, a good campfire and good conversation.

Accommodation

The Island features self-contained family-size tents on platforms, and cottages, well spread out into the woods and foliage, ensuring much cherished privacy. In keeping with the environmental significance of the island, the tents and cottages are built almost exclusively of natural materials, and are solar-powered. Running water, flush toilets and hot showers, provide added comfort.
