It is found between Mgahinga & Bwindi National parks and Kisoro Town in southwestern Uganda. You will find a place full of inspiration and enjoyment which is Chameleon Hill Lodge.
It is situated on the shores of one of East Africa’s most beautiful lakes ‘’Lake Mutanda’’. You will enjoy spectacular views across the lake with its islands and surrounding hills and in the backdrop, the Virunga Volcanoes greet you.
On your arrival at the lodge you are advised to take your time, sit back and relax in an environment which you have never seen before. The “arty” design of the lodge has mainly been affected by the location of the site itself.
The lodge and every single chalet are situated in a way that the breathtaking views across the lake and volcanoes are unobstructed at all times. Situated on an altitude of just over 2,000m and it is the perfect location for safaris to Bwindi and Mgahinga National Parks as well as exploring the Virunga Volcano mountain range.
Most importantly the perfect place for people looking for that ultimate “bucket list experience”: tracking the rare Mountain Gorillas.
