Mahogany Springs Lodge
From $325 /person
A tranquil riverside haven on the edge of Bwindi Forest.
Perched on the banks of the gentle Munyanga River, Mahogany Springs Lodge offers a serene base for exploring Uganda’s legendary Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Surrounded by dense jungle and mist-covered hills, it’s a place where adventure and tranquillity intertwine. The lodge’s open-air design invites the outdoors in—think vaulted thatched roofs, natural stone, and sweeping views that stretch across the forest canopy. Each suite feels like a private sanctuary, with spacious interiors, soft linens, and terraces that capture the sights and sounds of the wild. After a day trekking to see the mountain gorillas, guests return to warm smiles, cool drinks, and the comfort of a crackling fire. The restaurant serves freshly prepared meals inspired by Ugandan flavours, and the terrace is a favourite spot for watching the sun dip behind the trees. The lodge also supports local communities and conservation efforts, ensuring your stay has a positive impact on both people and the environment.

Best time to go to Mahogany Springs Lodge
The best time to visit Mahogany Springs Lodge is during the dry seasons, from June to September and December to February, when the trails in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest are more accessible and gorilla trekking conditions are ideal. These months offer clearer skies, comfortable temperatures, and easier hiking through the forest. However, the wet seasons—from March to May and October to November—bring their own beauty, with vibrant greenery, lush vegetation, and fewer visitors. While the rain can make treks more challenging, it also enhances the forest’s atmosphere and rewards photographers with dramatic misty backdrops.
