Kibale Lodge

Ishaazi Farm Lodge
January 1, 2026Papaya Lake Lodge sits on the shore of Lake Nyabikere in Uganda’s Fort Portal crater lakes region, a scenic stop close to Kibale Forest National Park’s chimpanzee trekking trails.
Setting
Like the other lodges scattered through the crater lakes area, Papaya Lake Lodge trades the open savanna views of Uganda’s bigger parks for a quieter, greener setting of small volcanic lakes and forest patches, with the lake itself available for canoeing.
Location Advantage
Its position within easy reach of Kibale makes it a practical base for chimpanzee trekking without staying directly at the park boundary, and a natural stop for travelers moving between Kibale and destinations further south such as Queen Elizabeth National Park.
