Mount Gahinga Rest Camp

Mount Gahinga Lodge


Located almost right next to the park headquarters, this intimate lodge offers stunning views of the nearby Kisoro volcano and is an excellent base from which to explore the park.  Each of the half a dozen stone cottages has their own en suite and private balconies looking out towards Lake Mutanda. The main lodge is reminiscent of a log cabin with an African twist and the roaring log fire is a great place to sit and browse one of the many excellent local interest books stocked in the library.
