Lake Nkuruba Nature Reserve was established in 1991 to protect the ancient forest habitat which surrounds the volcanic crater lake. It is one of the few crater lakes in the region which has retained its lush forest habitat. Lake Nkuruba Nature Reserve & Community Campsite As a Nature Reserve, you're welcome to visit Nkuruba for the day (day visitor fees apply) or book your accommodation with us and enjoy close encounters and great photo opportunities with our indigenous primates. Nkuruba provides the perfect base for chimp trekking in the nearby Kibale National Park or hiking in the Rwenzori Mountains.
