Mahogany Springs Safari Lodge
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
Key Features
Description
Nestled on the banks of the Munyanga River in the Buhoma sector of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Mahogany Springs Safari Lodge is a premier eco-luxury lodge offering an exquisite blend of comfort, adventure, and cultural immersion. Named after a 400-year-old mahogany tree towering over its vibrant gardens, this lodge provides an idyllic base for gorilla trekking and exploring Uganda’s biodiverse rainforest. Just a 5-minute walk from the gorilla trekking starting point, Mahogany Springs offers unparalleled access to intimate encounters with mountain gorillas, guided by expert rangers for a memorable hour in their natural habitat. Guests can also enjoy birdwatching (Bwindi hosts over 350 species), guided forest walks, or cultural visits to the Batwa community to learn about their ancient traditions. The lodge’s tree-planting program allows guests to contribute to conservation, while spa treatments and private bush breakfasts by the river enhance the adventure. Perched above the Munyanga River, the lodge offers stunning sunset views over Bwindi’s misty canopy and the Virunga Volcanoes. As the sun sets, the sky transforms into vibrant hues of gold, orange, and pink, best enjoyed from private terraces or the main lodge’s panoramic veranda, with a glass of wine or cocktail in hand, accompanied by the forest’s evening symphony.
