An Immersive Forest Experience

Where better to capture the thrill of a howling black and white colobus or to listen to the wood owl calling his partner than from the comfort of your tent in Kibale Forest Camp? Get absorbed by forest smells and sounds, spot primates swinging through the trees and observe rare birds and beautiful butterflies fluttering around. Have a break from your daily concrete jungle life and experience the real thing.

A budget alternative is our lazy camping on the campsite. Complemented by excellent food served in a cozy grass-thatched restaurant, the camp forms your perfect base if you are looking for an affordable and comfortable place from where to explore the area.

It borders the Magombe Swamp, known for the Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary, and is a mere 10-minute drive to Kanyanchu Visitor Center, the starting point of your chimpanzee tracking experience.
