Nyakahondogoro Caves

Located along the Mbarara-Fort Portal road near Ibanda Town, Nyakahondogoro Caves are among the largest in Ankole, steeped in history and spirituality.

Katooma Pyramid

In Katooma village stands a 5-meter-high stone pyramid, a poignant relic of Uganda’s colonial history. This site marks the spot where British colonial officer Harry St. George Galt was murdered in 1905. The pyramid tells a compelling story of resistance, colonial struggles, and their consequences, making it a must-visit for history enthusiasts eager to delve into Uganda’s past.

Kings Lake (Akayanja k’Omugabe)

Kings Lake, also known as Akayanja ka Kosiya, is a mythical crater lake located in Kijongo. Historically, it served as a purification site for Nkore kings before their coronation. Legends tell of mystical disappearances during ceremonies and a mythical snake believed to dwell in its depths. Surrounded by serene landscapes and warm waters, the lake is a fascinating site for spiritual, historical, and geological exploration.

Maria Magdalena Monument
