What you'll do

Sprinkled amongst the forests and plains of Kibale, you'll find a number of crater lakes, which were formed following volcanic eruptions thousands of years ago. With your seasoned guide leading the way, you'll hike the dramatic and striking 'Top of the World' trail. Walk along the spacious crater rims, sometimes beside mystical green lakes and at other times next to deeply inviting water where you can stop for a swim. From this panoramic viewpoint, take in the surreal landscape of rushing waterfalls, deep green forests and, on the clearest days, the 'Mountains of the Moon'. Then, return to your lodge for a well-earned pamper.
