Mweya Safari Lodge provides guests with an experience they won’t soon forget. Nestled amidst the enchanting Rwenzori Mountains, sometimes known as the “Mountains of the Moon,” Mweya Safari Lodge is situated on a peninsula in the core of Queen Elizabeth National Park. The Great Rift Valley hills, which are situated to the east of the Mountains of the Moon and are guarded by the flowing Kazinga Channel, are thought to be the birthplace of humanity.
Mweya Safari Lodge assures guests that their stay will be unforgettable. The Rwenzori Mountains, sometimes known as the “Mountains of the Moon,” envelop this lodge, which is perched on a peninsula at the centre of Queen Elizabeth National Park. Its eastern boundary is formed by the Great Rift Valley hills, which are the ancient protectors of the human cradle and stand apart from the Mountains of the Moon. The Kazinga Channel meanders through the valley between. Water pours into two large lakes, Lake George and Lake Edward, from this location. We truly think that the most amazing experiences frequently begin somewhere other than the well-traveled routes.
