Mount Gahinga Lodge-Mgahinga Gorilla National Park-Uganda
Mgahinga Gorilla National Park Mount Gahinga Lodge nestles in the foothills of the Virunga volcanoes, on the border of Uganda, Rwanda and the DRC. This cosy african style mountain lodge sits in the shadow of 3 volcanoes, Muhavura, Mgahinga, and Sabinyo. There are spectacular views of volcanoes from around the property. The lodge has been totally renovated. A sun-room facing the volcanoes has been added, and a new terrace and gardens created. The ideal place to stay while gorilla tracking in Mgahinga or in Nkuringo in southern Bwindi, Uganda, or in the neighbouring DRC, climbing a volcano, going birding, or just taking in one of the most beautiful landscapes of Africa. An hours flight from Entebbe or a long days drive; four hours drive from Kigali. A rare gem on the roof of the world.

Facilities

Accommodation

    9 thatched bandas

    The eco-lodges, conceived and built by Praveen and a team of African builders, led by John Ssemanda, reflect local architecture. With the help of Prabhat Poddar, an expert on Vasthu, they incorporate ancient Indian concepts of harmonizing the energy of buildings with the earth. Robin Pendleton, a designer from New York, acts as a consultant to create locally inspired interiors.
