Escape into the wild
A forest retreat where African heritage, nature, recreation and unforgettable experiences come together just outside Kampala.
More than a destination
An experience, not just accommodation
Twenty-plus acres of forest, a man-made lake and traditional African architecture come together with recreation, hospitality and community — a place built for gathering as much as for resting.
