Virunga Lodge

The Virunga Lodge is, set on a stunning hillside on the border of Volcanoes National Park. The lodge has only 8 stone bandas, all with a panoramic view of the Virunga volcanoes and the lakes Ruhondo and Bulera. The terraced gardens on this high ridge are now well established, with a magical sunken paradise garden as their focal point.

Aside from gorilla tracking , you can climb a volcano, track the golden monkey, visit Dian Fossey's grave or go for gentle strolls around the picturesque villages near the lakes.

The lodge is also easy to get to and is only 3 hours' drive from Kigali. It can also be easily accessed from Uganda's Mgahinga park, which is part of the Virunga Volcanoes.
