Mount Gahinga Lodge

Batwa Culture and Gorilla Lodge
Praveen Moman created his first lodge, Mount Gahinga Lodge, which opened in 2002. It is the ideal location for gorilla tracking on the Ugandan side of the Virungas, tracing the rare golden monkey, climbing a volcano, walking through local towns, and, most importantly, sharing the Batwa culture, the oldest residents of the Central African rain forest.

The beautiful residence, influenced by traditional design and building techniques, has lately been reimagined: the living, dining room, and gardens have all been renovated, and two more deluxe bandas have been introduced.

The magnificent hand-built bandas capture the enchantment of the Bufimbira people's aesthetic heritage. Each Banda features an ensuite luxury shower room, a fireplace, and a private balcony.
