Welcome to Kikonko Lodge

On the escarpment of the Albertine Rift overlooking Lake Albert sits Kikonko Lodge,
With breath taking views of the Lake and the Blue Mountains of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

At night we are enchanted by the many boats lit up by local fishermen
and dancing on Lake Albert.







Uganda at its best.

At Kikonko Lodge we offer comfort and relaxation with warm hospitality.

Hospitality is what we live for and so we try
to make every day a perfect day for our guests.

Come and try us out –
you will be welcomed with a warm smile!



Whether you want to refresh after a long drive or just get away from the heat that can become quite intense at Kikonko at times, the pool will offer you a refreshing oasis!

Take a dip and relax in the cool water or chill on the sunbeds while overlooking Lake Albert.

Nights of a million lights

No matter whether you are enjoying a drink, reading a book, playing a board game or having a chat – the Lake Albert view will be your constant companion, reminding you that you are in one of nature’s most beautiful spots! And at night the fishermen will light up the lake when they are going for their daily catch.

We are three friends, Richard, Stefan and Stefanie, who have created Kikonko as a peaceful oasis where people can come to and recharge their batteries.

We have known each other for 24 good years and are always happy to be in the company of each other where we can share a good story and a laugh.
