Nestled in Uganda's most remote and stunning south-western section of the country, this cultural sanctuary is located in foothills of Mt Gahinga and Mt Sabyinyo in Mgahinga Gorilla National Park.
With six very comfortable and recently renovated stone bandas and one new double deluxe banda all with en-suite luxury shower rooms, cozy fireplaces, private verandas, and personal butler service this really is the perfect luxurius hide-away. The main lodge area has a welcoming fireplace, a warm relaxed ambience and offers splendid views from its terrace and beautifully prunned gardens.
Owned by the respected Volcano Safaris, commended for its positive work with the local population, the lodge offers some truely authentic Batwa experiences including the Batwa settlement walk, the Batwa heritage experience, visiting the Batwa vocational school as well as Batwa music and dancing performances.
Trekking/hiking enthusiasts will not be disapointed, the lodge provides excellent access to hike Mt. Gahinga, Mt. Sabyinyo, and Mt. Muhavura volcanoes, and the lodge grounds and entire area offers some of the best birding in Uganda particularly for Albertine Rift Endemics. Guests can also enjoy a primate experience by hiking into the lower bamboo section of Mt. Gahinga to track the cheeky golden monkeys.
