Mutanda Eco Community Camp

Mutanda Eco Community Camp is a budget accommodation in Kisoro, Uganda. Mutanda Lake Resort occupies a peninsula on Lake Mutanda near Kisoro in southwest Uganda, with the Virunga Mountains forming a dramatic backdrop. The resort offers luxury tents set on raised wooden platforms, creating a boutique atmosphere that is deliberately small in scale. Wooden docks extend into the lake, and the property includes a restaurant and bar with views across the water.

The resort is Dutch-owned and maintains a relaxed, intimate feel. Activities at the property itself include swimming, canoeing, and bird watching on the lake. For gorilla trekking, the nearby Nkuringo and Rushaga sectors of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park as well as Mgahinga Gorilla National Park are all within driving distance, making the resort a viable base for trekking days combined with lakeside rest days.

Mutanda Lake Resort received Uganda Tourism Excellence Awards in 2017. It is often chosen by travelers who want a lakeside setting with volcano views rather than staying directly at the forest edge, and who appreciate a quieter atmosphere between trekking days. The combination of lake, mountains, and proximity to multiple gorilla trekking sectors gives it a flexible position in southwest Uganda itineraries.
