Visit Kasese when the Rwenzori Mountains are the point. The town is the practical base for mountains, trekking logistics, equatorial-western Uganda routes, and park access. It works for travelers who are building around landscape and guided mountain movement, not a city break.
Do not visit Kasese without checking park conditions, permits, transport, and trekking plans. The mountains decide the trip. If you are not going into the Rwenzori area, Kasese is probably a transit stop rather than a destination.
