Experience Sagitwe Caldera -A Nature & Culture-blended Excursion in Kisoro, Uganda

Nestled between the majestic Mgahinga Gorilla National Park and the vibrant Kisoro town, the Sagitwe Caldera is one of the most iconic volcanic features in southwestern Uganda. This scenic depression offers panoramic views of the Virunga volcano chain, Lake Mutanda, and the lush countryside—making it a must-visit for nature lovers and cultural explorers alike.

A caldera is a large, cauldron-like volcanic depression formed when a volcano erupts so violently that it empties its underground magma chamber. Without the magma to support the ground above, the surface collapses inward, creating a vast crater that can span from a few kilometers to over 100 kilometers in diameter
