Nkuringo Bwindi Gorilla Lodge

Nkuringo Bwindi Gorilla Lodge is a mid-range lodge in Uganda, situated in the Nkuringo area of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Nkuringo Bwindi Gorilla Lodge sits at 2,161 metres on a ridgeline above the Nkuringo sector of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. The lodge has 12 rooms in three categories: six Virunga Terrace Rooms, Garden Cottages, and a two-bedroom Villa. From the terrace and many of the rooms, views extend across the Bwindi forest canopy, the Albertine Rift Valley, and on clear days the chain of Virunga Volcanoes along the Congo border.

The main lodge building houses the dining room, a lounge with a fireplace, a bar, and a reading corner. Amenities include Wi-Fi, laundry service, butler service, and a massage room. The property operates on solar energy and rainwater harvesting, and describes itself as carbon neutral. The altitude of 2,161 metres means the area is mosquito-free, which is a notable practical advantage.

Nkuringo Bwindi Gorilla Lodge is well suited for travelers trekking gorillas in the Nkuringo sector who also value panoramic views and a commitment to community and environmental responsibility. The lodge has a long-standing partnership with the local Nkuringo community, and part of the revenue supports community development projects. The Nkuringo sector tends to be quieter than Buhoma, offering a less crowded gorilla trekking experience.
