Bwindi Lodge

Perched on the edge of Uganda’s misty Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Bwindi Lodge offers a front-row seat to one of the most extraordinary wildlife encounters on Earth — the chance to track endangered mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. This award-winning eco-lodge combines stylish comfort with raw natural beauty, offering dramatic views across the forest canopy and a serene stream that winds through the property. It’s not uncommon for gorillas to be spotted in the thick foliage surrounding the lodge, adding to the sense of magic and intimacy with nature.

With ten elegant hand built guest bandas facing the dramatic Bwindi Forest (Two deluxe and eight standard rooms) — each thoughtfully designed with local materials and panoramic forest views, Bwindi Lodge is as immersive as it is indulgent. Private verandas, ensuite bathrooms with modern comforts, and personal butler service ensure a stay that is both wild and welcoming. The Humula mw’ Ishamba Spa offers complimentary massages and sauna, ideal after a day of trekking through dense rainforest terrain.

Guests can look forward to gorilla tracking with expert guides, guided hikes to nearby waterfalls, community visits, birdwatching, and even a Bwindi tea tour. The lodge also supports nearby conservation and social initiatives, including a local hospital and the charming Bwindi Bar, where guests can sample traditional cuisine and support hospitality training for youth in the region.
