About Kihihi
Kihihi is a small farming town with an outsized role: its airstrip is the fastest way from Entebbe to the gorillas, serving Bwindi's northern Buhoma sector and the Ishasha plains of Queen Elizabeth National Park. A scheduled flight replaces a ten-hour drive, putting trekkers at their lodge by lunchtime. Around town, banana gardens and tea fields roll toward the forest edge, a green, easy-going first taste of Uganda's southwest.
