Mgahinga Gorilla National Park cheap and luxurious hotels, youth hostels and lodging

  • Amajambere Iwacu Community Camp, (At the Mgahinga Gorilla National Park's main entrance), +256 774954956, [1]. The only budget place right at the entrance (other option being Volcanoes Safaris at $200) brings money back to the community by offering cute bandas & camping, all in view of three of the Virungas. Easy on the pocket, excellent location. 

Lodging

  • Mgahinga Safari Lodge [2] is on Lake Mutare between Kisoro and Nkuringo and makes a good base for tracking gorillas in the latter location. It is a fair distance from Mgahinga National Park, but they can arrange safaris. The location is on a peninsula out in the stunningly beautiful lake, with the Virunga Mountains as another dramatic vista. Great value for money, good food by Ugandan standards, clean, good staff, etc., but you may be competing for space with packaged tours that use the property.
