Lake Bunyonyi in pictures.

Nestled among steeply terraced hills in Uganda's southwest, Lake Bunyonyi is one of the deepest lakes in Africa and dotted with twenty-nine small islands. Free of crocodiles and hippos, it is a rare African lake safe for swimming, canoeing and lazy days on the water. It makes a tranquil retreat after the exertion of gorilla trekking nearby.
