Kibale has a good selection of properties. Thanks to good quality roads, the forest is accessible from properties in the Toro Crater Lakes area and Fort Portal, as well as those closer to the Kanyanchu Tourist Centre.
Sleep under the canopies of old trees or perched atop a ridge. Enjoy panoramic views of the rainforest and the Rwenzori Mountain range, and for those more adventurous, take refuge high above in old-style treehouses. There is a wide range of accommodation options near the park to suit all budgets.
Private cottages, with electricity, Wi-Fi and all the works are the most luxurious option, but there are great tented camps for those looking to rest a little closer to nature. If you’re planning a chimp trek in Kibale, consider the distance to Kanyanchu, the start of the trail.
