In the far southwest of Uganda, the Kigezi Highlands stretch across Kabale, Kisoro, Kanungu, and Rukungiri districts, bordered by Rwanda to the south and the Democratic Republic of Congo to the west. Nestled between the Virunga Massif and the terraced hills surrounding lakes Bunyonyi and Mutanda, Kigezi is among the most breathtaking landscapes in East Africa. Some have called it the “Switzerland of Africa”—but to them, this is simply Uganda: a place whose natural beauty and warmth need no comparison.
