The lodge is built on the border of Kibale Forest, on a beautiful piece of land with a splendid view of Kibale Forest and the snow-capped peaks of the Rwenzori Mountains.
As the name implies, Chimps’ Nest is often visited by monkeys, chimps, and forest elephants.
The lodge is situated near Nyabubale, a small village between Nkingo and Bigodi which is a 6 km away from Kanyanchu tourist center.
Chimp’s Nest is a true birder’s paradise, virtually all 350 bird species of Kibale Forest and the bordering Bigodi Swamps can be observed on the premises.
