Bisate Lodge

The award-winning Bisate Lodge overlooks Volcanoes National park in Northwest Rwanda and is one of the best places to see endangered mountain gorillas in the wild. Trekkers can spend one transformational hour sitting with some of our closest wild relatives in the habituated gorilla troops that roam the slopes. The gorilla trekking can be strenuous, but local porters can help with gear.

Beyond gorillas, the national park offers several other activities, including golden monkey trekking and mountain climbing. Additionally, visitors to the lodge have the option of touring the surrounding villages or supporting reforestation projects. Bisate Lodge’s iconic villas are designed in a sophisticated local style that feels natural and is surrounded by trails filled with birds and other wildlife. It is a spectacular accompaniment to a once-in-a-lifetime gorilla trekking experience.
