Overview
Virunga Lodge is situated in the magnificent region of Rwanda. This is one of Africa’s most loved lodges. Virunga is perched high on a ridge with the finest views in Africa, overlooking the Virunga Volcanoes and the Musanze valley to the west and Lake Bulera and Ruhondo to the east.
Virunga Lodge is an iconic property that defined Rwandese Afro-chic since the lodge was built by Praveen Moman in 2004. The elements of this lodge are understated, timeless, and hand-made and has been further refined to meet the needs of today’s luxury traveller. Exceptional hospitality and locally inspired food make it the first accommodation choice for tracking the endangered mountain gorilla.
Each of the ten elegant bandas has a private terrace from which guests can watch the sunrise over the dramatic landscape of mountains and lakes. The two deluxe bandas – named after the lakes Ibirunga and Ibiyaga – have their own private sitting room and more refined interiors, and a large terrace overlooking the majestic Virunga volcanoes or the twin lakes.
