Kibale Forest National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Semliki Game Reserve
and Semliki National Park, and Mountain Rwenzori National park.

The camp is within walking distance to Kibale National Park, with all its wonderful
African wildlife and spectacular scenery.

Rweteera Safari Park lies within the tranquil Ndali-Kasenda crater area and within

Parks, as well as the Toro-Semliki Wildlife Reserve.

lakeside and Black & White colobus monkeys your fellow diners!

Meals are prepared with fresh organic fruits and vegetables as well as fish, supplied
by local farmers and fishermen. With friendly staff and home from home atmosphere
visitors will find the service and accommodation comfortable and affordable.

Cultural Tour

Take a guided walk through our local villages. Meet and greet villagers and learn
about our unique Ugandan culture and traditions.

Nature walks

After days spent in a car for safaris and transfers, it's great to get out of the car and
finally be allowed to walk around in the crater lakes. There are no predators in the
crater lakes (except for the hippo - which doesn't attack humans). Enjoy a guided
walk through Lake Nyabikere and swamp wetland area, learning about the monkeys,
birds and trees found in our Nature Reserve.

Water fall

Experience a glorious trek through beautiful countryside, past three volcanic crater
lakes and on to the stunning Mahoma Waterfall.

Crater Lake Hikes

Explore four crater lakes during this enjoyable circular walk. Learn about Crater Lake
formation whilst viewing birds, trees and beautiful scenery.
Hikes of varying lengths among the crater lakes can be organised. Depending on
your interest and fitness level, the experience can include waterfalls, crater rims,
coffee terraces and even banana gin brewing in oil drums. There are also plenty to
see for those fascinated by birds, butterflies, and primates.

Fishing

The lake offers opportunities for boating and fishing, whilst the surrounding trails are
excellent for mountain-biking and hiking.

Camping

Our campsite is surrounded by trees often frequented by red colobus, black and
white colobus and the mischievous vervet monkeys. Camping facilities include
shared bathroom facilities with flushing toilets. Camping chairs are available and a
camp fire may be lit at night.

In addition to accommodation in safari permanent tents, the Safari Park offers quality
camping for over landers and individuals. The campsite offers modern shower
facilities, as well as barbeque and dining facilities with spectacular views over the
Crater Lake.

A variety of delicious African dishes are served based on fresh raw materials from
the nearby market. Guests can also prepare their own meal on the barbeque if they
so wish. A chef is available for continental dishes.
Favorite Activities at Rweteera Safari Park

Lakeside Dinners

Have a romantic evening out - we'll take tables, chairs, plates, candles, food, wine
and yourself out to one of our favourite spots on the lakeside. With a view over the
lake and onto the boundary of kibale national park, you'll enjoy your dinner and quite
an impressive scenery while the sun is setting.

Excursions to the Fishing Village Kyantambara

Kyantambara is a scenic little fishing village on the lakeshore. Our guide explains the
traditional lifestyle of the fisherman here and probably will introduce you to the village
elders. Usually, you have little kids on all your free fingers - they're not there for
begging, they mostly like holding hands and jumping around with Muzungu.
You can walk to the village or we can drive you.
Relaxing and reading at the side of the lake

With a breeze from the lake and the view across the water to kibale national park.
Take a break from your safaris, enjoy a dip in the crater lake, have somebody bring
you a juice or a beer, and just watch the time pass by.

Needs a lot of improvement
Lovely view and location but badly cooked food which took over an hour to arrive. Staff were welcoming and nice but we got completely different prices for food and accommodation from 4 different staff. The bedsheets did not smell washed and the towel we found in the room was wet. With all the cheap solar power options currently available in Uganda I was disappointed to have no light at all.
