Mweya Safari Lodge is located deep in Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda’s premier big game destination. Set on a peninsula above the wide Kazinga Channel and surrounded by the Rwenzori Mountains – known as the ‘Mountains of the Moon’ – the wood and thatch safari-style lodge offers magnificent views from all its rooms and cottages.
Guests set off on morning and afternoon/evening game drives in open vehicles in search of a wide variety of animals – key species include buffalo, elephant, hippopotamus and lion. Moreover, many animals and a huge range of birds can be seen as you glide over the waters of the Kazinga Channel in specially equipped game viewing boats, a real highlight of the area. You can also go in search of chimpanzees in the forested Kyambura Gorge or view extinct volcano craters.
