Luxury Eco-Lodge in Nkuringo Bwindi: The 10-Minute Walk to Gorilla Trekking
Welcome To Our Lodge
Sensationally set on a hillside overlooking the jungle canopy and Virunga Volcanoes, Orugano Bwindi Lodge is the perfect place to stay in the Nkuringo Sector of Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. Around 1,000 mountain gorillas live in the wild, and Bwindi is home to more than half of them. The lodge is just a short 10-minute walk from the Nkuringo Wildlife Authority Offices and is the best base for trekking to see these magnificent creatures. Beautifully and eco-friendly designed in harmony with nature, Orugano Bwindi Lodge also helps save mountain gorillas from extinction — every stay supports local communities, wildlife, and the forest itself.
Discover the thrill of gorilla trekking
Physically taxing and potentially life-changing, gorilla trekking is the star experience at Orugano Bwindi Lodge.
A place that fits you
The Orugano Advantage
Extraordinary Experiences
Seeing mountain gorillas is likely to be your top priority during your time at our lodge, and a trek into the mountains – physically demanding, potentially life-changing – will be central to your itinerary. But there is much else to do besides: more moderate guided walks to discover the flora and fauna of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest; interactive community visits, including time spent with the Batwa, the traditional guardians of the forest; golden monkey tracking, volcano climbing, and canoeing on Lake Mutanda.
