Situated in western Uganda, this intimate lodge offers luxury in the midst of one of Africa’s most amazing natural environments, the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.

A UNESCO World Heritage site, Bwindi is incredibly diverse with numerous plant and animal species including 320 mountain gorillas - half the world’s remaining population. These magnificent creatures are only found in Uganda, Rwanda and the Congo, and Gorilla Forest Camp is an ideal base from which to venture out into the surrounding rainforest to experience them.

Gorilla Forest Camp has been designed to blend seamlessly into this most atmospheric of environments, carefully-appointed towards the misty valleys and looming, forest-clad mountains that protect this fragile eco-system.

Accommodation is in 8 double tents, raised on wooden platforms, each with en-suite facilities and hot and cold running water, WC, basin and unusually – a bathtub looking out onto the forest. Each tent has a spacious wooden verandah where guests can relax, enjoy a private meal and absorb the exotic mystery of the surrounding rainforest that provided the inspiration for the animation of Disney's The Jungle Book.

The Gorilla Forest Camp offers a bar and dining cottage overlooking the rain forest, as well as a raised natural platform for open air dining. At night, a traditional African campfire is lit from where a lecture might be given by a visiting primatologist, the gorilla briefings are undertaken or guests simply admire the myriad brilliance of Bwindi's crystal clear mountain sky.
