The luxurious Ishasha Wilderness Camp is located in the remote southern sector of Queen Elizabeth National Park, home to the famous tree-climbing lion.

Situated on the Ntungwe River, it offers ten comfortably furnished en suite tents, each with mosquito nets, a private dressing area, hot water ‘bush’ shower and eco friendly flush toilet. The camp has a central lounge and dining area under a cool thatched roof, as well as a shaded area by the river offering al fresco dining. 

As the camp itself is situated within the National Park, it has been designed to have a low impact on the environment; therefore solar lighting is used within the tents, with power points limited to the central area where guests can recharge their cameras. On a clear day from this part of the park you can see Rwanda's Virunga Volcanoes lying to the south, and the Rwenzori Mountains to the north.
