Traveling off the beaten track is not even felt by tourists who visit the glittering waters of Lake Bunyonyi because charmingly the lake is ranked among the deepest that have been known. A ride towards the southwestern part of Uganda between Kisoro and Kabale nearing the border of Rwanda is where the wondrous Lake Bunyonyi is naturally crafted and found.
This lake is the fourth deepest lake in Africa with a depth of 900m, being 25km long and 7km wide. While lava from one of the Virunga mountains was flowing 1000 years ago, it created a depression that later on resulted in this lake.
Besides wondering about the depth of the lake, tourists can engage in a lot of activities while at the lake sides like bird watching, canoeing, cultural tours, and boating among other activities.
