Every single thing about this gorgeous lake will blow your mind away like it did to me and for that matter, prepare to be hooked by everything your eyes land on when you come for a tour.

Known as the deepest lake in Uganda and the second deepest in all of Africa, Lake Bunyonyi can be found in the South Western part of Uganda between Kabale and Kisoro districts, next to the border with Rwanda. These two districts are occupied by the Pygmy people who had been displaced from Budongo forest and decided to join the Bakiga people from whom the name “Bunyonyi” was got for the lake to mean, “a place of many little birds”.

Lake Bunyonyi is the most gorgeous lake in the entire country, it is characterized by 29 unbelievable islands which are individually unique from each other. The lake is surrounded by steep rolling hills which shield the lake from strong winds hence the absence of strong wave action on the lake.

She is home to over 200 recorded bird species, several plant and animal species. Due to the absence of crocodiles, hippos and risk of contracting bilharzia, Lake Bunyonyi is among the top safest lakes in Africa.
