Clouds Mountain Gorilla Lodge

Clouds Mountain Gorilla Lodge

Clouds Mountain Gorilla Lodge is located on a forested edge at the entrance to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. It features eight spacious cottages built of volcanic stone. The cottages offer spectacular views of Rwanda's Virunga Volcanoes and even across the border to Congo, where the glow of Nyiragongo Volcano can be seen on a clear night. At the lodge, you will receive a warm welcome. Each cottage has a bedroom, a private bathroom with walk-in shower and a separate living room. Comfortable chairs on the outdoor verandas provide the perfect vantage point to admire the forest vistas. Burning fireplaces create a cosy glow as night falls. All meals are prepared using the freshest local ingredients and dinner can be served by the fireplace in the dining room or in your own cottage. The lodge is within walking distance of the trail where the gorilla trekking adventure begins. Also, you can take guided walks and discover different bird species in the area. You can also visit the local community, giving you a glimpse of local traditional life.
