Virunga Lodge
From $0 /person
An enchanting retreat nestled in the mountains near Volcanoes National Park
Perched against a forested hillside, Virunga Lodge offers panoramic views of the nearby Virunga Volcanoes and the Ruhondo and Bulera lakes. Guests can enjoy a relaxing complimentary massage at the Ikirunga Spa & Sauna, plus adventures like tracking gorillas and golden monkeys in the forest, hiking to the top of the volcanoes, or scenic walks through the picturesque surrounding villages. For those laid-back days, spend time in the Dian Fossey Map Room, sample locally-inspired meals, or enjoy the simple act of sitting out on a private terrace and watching the clouds dance across the landscape. Guests also can support the lodge’s 'One Sheep per Family' and 'Donate a Water Tank' projects.
