A deep crater-rimmed lake in southwestern Uganda dotted with 29 small islands and terraced hillsides. Travelers come here to paddle dugout canoes, watch birds, and rest between gorilla treks in nearby forests. Lakeside hostels and campsites make it one of the most affordable places to linger in the region.
