Our Lodges

Find your perfect Bwindi accommodation — from intimate forest camps to luxurious mountain retreats across all four trekking sectors.

Bwindi's 23 lodges span four distinct trekking sectors — Buhoma, Rushaga, Nkuringo, and Ruhija — and every budget tier from community guesthouses to world-class tented camps. The single most important factor when choosing a lodge is matching it to your gorilla permit sector: the trek briefing starts at 7:30 a.m., so an unnecessary cross-sector transfer means a very early start on your most important morning.
