Clouds Mountain
Gorilla Lodge (up-market)$$$$$: You cannot get
further away from it all
and yet be in total comfort. Not many places such as this
anywhere in the world. Lovely
award winning lodging facility -
simply one of the best, but you will need gorilla permits in the Nkuringo Sector of the park.
This is the most expensive facility in the park
and your money goes to do some good in the local community in the area.
A sizeable portion of the lodging proceeds are committed to development
of the local area and people benefit from the gorillas.
There are only 8 rooms done in natural stone
fashion. The rooms are exquisitely furnished and you have views of
both the forest and the Virunga Volcano Chain with its majestic peaks.
A nice feature is fireplaces in the Lodge.
Clouds Mountain
Gorilla Lodge is not for everyone's pocket book, but it certainly is an
experience and the food is fabulous. Recipes are carefully
followed by expert chefs and the result is a feast for the senses.
There is running water, hot and cold, electricity
and all of your needs are met, most of the time before you ask, by a
delightful staff. You even have your own personal butler.
