Accommodations at the lodge consist of ten luxury chalets, each with their own vibrant color scheme and character. These comfy rooms include a modern en suite bathroom with panoramic windows for viewing volcanoes in the shower. For an even better view of the sapphire-hued lake and verdant volcanic slopes, guests can sit on their private veranda and enjoy a soothing cup of tea or coffee brought the room.
The lodge is ideally located between Mgahinga & Bwindi National Parks. Bwindi is a massive rainforest that provides the perfect habitat for more than 300 mountain gorillas. At an altitude of between 3,500 and 8,500 feet, the park is regarded as one of the most biologically diverse forests in Africa. In addition to the primate populations, the park is home to 120 mammal species including duiker, elephant, bushbuck, bush pig, giant forest hog, and several small cat species, such as the elusive golden cat. There are also eleven primate types such as black and white colobus, red-tailed and blue monkey, and chimpanzee living here. Mgahinga is also home to the endangered mountain gorillas, rare golden monkeys, beautiful bamboo rain forests, and the sacred Ngarama Cave, which was once home to the king of the Batwa Pygmies.
Gorilla trekking is the biggest draw to the area. The lodge offers guided gorilla tracking tours in both Bwindi and Mgahinga. Gorillas are found in the thick forest, which makes for tricky stalking, especially given the steep hillsides. The full-day gorilla experience lets a maximum of eight guests spend four hours with a gorilla family and must be booked well in advance. Other wildlife activities include golden monkey tracking. Boat excursions explore Lake Mutanda and can also be combined with a village walk with a hilltop lunch. Other cultural tours include tours of the local markets or lessons in making traditional jewelry, gorilla masks, and woven baskets. Plus, there are plenty of guided hikes around the nearby mountains.
The lodge’s public areas include an inviting lounge with a cement sofa covered with soft cushions and cozy armchairs where weary travelers can relax in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine. The dining room tempts the eyes as well as the palate with a panoramic view of the lake while dishing up a delicious fusion of cuisines and spices made from locally sourced ingredients. There is even a masseur on staff for some extra pampering.
