About Kisoro
Kisoro sits in Uganda's extreme southwest, ringed by the cones of Muhabura, Gahinga and Sabyinyo, the Virunga volcanoes that hold Mgahinga Gorilla National Park. It is the base for treks to Bwindi's southern Nkuringo and Rushaga sectors, Mgahinga's gorillas and golden monkeys, and the crater summit of Muhabura. Nearby Lake Mutanda scatters islands beneath the volcano skyline, dugout canoe trips here are among the most scenic hours in East Africa.
