Bwindi lodge as the name suggests is situated in the magnificent part of Bwindi National Park. It is an ideal choice for gorilla trekkers and visitors to Bwindi.
Bwindi Lodge is only property in Bwindi which has magnificent views of the forest.
Gorillas, chimpanzees and birds can often be heard screeching near the river below. Bwindi Lodge overlooks the primeval Bwindi forest, home to gorillas, monkeys, chimpanzees and birds. Tracking gorillas in the so-called ‘impenetrable’ forest is a rewarding experience!.
At this stunning eco-lodge with eight bandas, clients can spend the day on the terrace, which juts out into the forest, mesmerized by its exotic sounds, watching primates and birds in the canopy. The walk to the river through the regenerated bush we have carefully nurtured as a buffer zone is magical. It is a favourite haunt for the gorillas and they often come back to sleep at the lodge! An hour’s flight from Entebbe, a long day’s drive from Kampala or six hours’ drive from Kigali.
