Hidden just outside the southern border of beautiful Kibale Forest National Park, Kibale Forest Camp neighbors the fascinating Magombe Swamp (also known as the Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary). The area attracts a host of butterflies, birds, and a variety of primates and offers an unforgettable nature experience.

When you are not relaxing at the camp spotting the red or black-and-white colobus monkeys that often wander through the grounds, you can enjoy several treks in Bigodi where you can search for a wide range of primates and birds. Visits to the nearby crater lakes or a night walk in the national park also come highly recommended.

Kibale Forest Camp is very conveniently located a short drive from the Kanyanchu Visitor Center, from where you depart on your exhilarating chimpanzee trek among habituated chimps.
