Park View Safari Lodge is a luxury accommodation located just outside Queen Elizabeth National Park, offering clear views of the Rwenzori Ranges, Kazinga Channel, and the Western Rift Valley. The name “Park View” comes from these beautiful sights. The lodge’s spacious rooms are self-contained, with bathtubs and showers that provide both hot and cold water.
The lodge has many facilities for guests, including a library with books on conservation and Queen Elizabeth National Park, a large conference room, and a restaurant that serves both local and international dishes.

Its location makes it easy to join activities in the park, such as guided game drives in the Kasenyi Plains. Here you may see elephants, warthogs, buffaloes, leopards, hyenas, and many other animals roaming the grasslands.
Bird lovers can spot species like the yellow-throated longclaw and the grey crowned crane. Game drives are best done early in the morning or late in the evening when animals are more active. Kasenyi Plains is also a good spot for photography, especially during sunrise and sunset. Another popular game drive area is the Ishasha Sector, famous for its tree-climbing lions and other wildlife.
A boat cruise on the Kazinga Channel, which connects Lake Edward and Lake George, is another recommended activity. During the dry season, many animals gather along its banks when other water sources dry up. You can see crocodiles, hippos, herons, and other wildlife coming to drink. Chimpanzee trekking is also possible in Kyambura Gorge.
Other activities include nature walks, community visits, and viewing the scenic crater lakes. The best time to visit Queen Elizabeth National Park is from June to September and December to February, during the dry season when animal sightings are easier. It is advisable to book your accommodation early, as this is the peak travel period.
