Enjojo Lodge

Enjojo Lodge lies just outside the Ishasha sector in the remote south of Queen Elizabeth National Park, in a quiet patch of palm thicket, acacia woodland and open grassland where elephants regularly pass by. Seven thatched cottages, four tucked into the palms and three facing the grassland, each have an en-suite bathroom with solar hot water, an outdoor shower and a wide veranda. Three newer forest rondavels sit under the acacias with large terraces, and the Safari House sleeps up to eight in two en-suite bedrooms, with its own thatched veranda, sitting area and fire pit. Simpler self-contained safari tents and a separate bush campsite widen the choice of budgets. An elevated wooden walkway leads through the vegetation to the open-sided thatched restaurant and lounge, and evenings end around the campfire. It is a convenient base for game drives in search of Ishasha's tree-climbing lions and a natural overnight stop on the route between Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi.
