Chameleon Hill Lodge There is no other lodge like it in all of Africa – a unique – one-of-a-kind Luxury Lodge sitting on Chameleon Hill.
We live in a sea of sameness, of similarities, where even lodges follow certain styles and patterns, and then there is the one-of-a-kind Chameleon Hill Lodge, unlike any other club in Uganda.
Driving up the Ridge and seeing the Lodge for the first time, with its varied hues of colors that seem to twinkle in the sun, like Joseph’s multicolored coat, is an experience.
Chameleon Hill Lodge is the creation of someone who walks to their drumbeat, someone who is uniquely themselves and brought to fruition an inner dream of a castle on a hill overlooking Lake Mutanda and like the bright array of colors you will find in the Chameleons of this area. Hence, Chameleon Hill, with its collection of brilliant colors, lives up to its name, “Chameleon Hill Lodge.”
Step through the castle doors into the main Lodge, and you are entering a world of utmost comfort – a dining area where you can enjoy a superb breakfast, a great lunch, and a most memorable three-course dinner – if you have special dietary needs of one kind or another the capable chef can accommodate you to your satisfaction.
There is a comfortable sitting area here, and in the evening, a crackling fire will warm you – it does get a bit cold in this part of Uganda, but you will be delighted by the fine selection of wines the Lodge offers all-around class and style.
Enjoy the sunset from here – take in the majestic – almost mystical Lake Mutanda below you and the majestic Mufumbiro Mountains – Mountains that cook – the Virunga Volcanoes. It is a fantastic array of sights and colors – one of Uganda’s most astounding, comfortable, and luxurious locations along Lake Mutanda.
Your room is an individual cottage; of course, it is en-suite with a bath, and the water is heated with propane, which means a super hot shower, which can sometimes be lacking on safari.
The room of your cottage is colorful in and out, very functional, and practical, with quality furniture throughout, as in the main Lodge.
There is also excellent bedding with other out-of-the-ordinary things needed in this colder part of Uganda…a duvet on your bed; if that is not enough, extra blankets are there for your comfort. There is also a safe for each cottage to keep your things safe and secure during your stay here. It seems almost everything seems to be thought of.

TripAdvisor regarding Chameleon Hill Lodge – mostly gave the verdict of excellent, and the reviews were a delight to read. There was only praise about the Forry aspect of this unique Lodge in the Pearl of Africa; one of the reviewers was the well-known Travel, Tourism, and Conservation writer Dr. Wolfgang E. Thome, who one can be sure has stayed in several lodges in his time. Still, even he wrote high praises about Chameleon Hill Lodge.
Chameleon Hill Lodge is an area that is a bit off of the beaten path for tourists to Uganda – however, Lake Mutanda is the gateway to the discovery of a place that holds many pearls in the Pearl of Africa –Lake Mutanda, Mgahinga Gorilla Park, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, the Batwa Pygmies, Nature Trails and Hikes, even visits to nearby Rwanda.
