New Wilderness lodge Bisate Reserve is set to open this September, close to Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park, home to the iconic mountain gorillas.

Guests will gain an insight into the study and protection of mountain gorillas

The lodge is a base for treks to see mountain gorillas

An expansion of the existing Bisate lodge, the new property is positioned on the rim of a volcano with four large villas offering far-reaching views of the surrounding wilderness. Each lodge is designed with natural materials and the highest attention to detail, reflecting the architectural heritage of Rwanda. 

Focused on protecting the area’s natural biodiversity, the lodge has already been instrumental in reforesting and rehabilitating the surrounding forest after it was used for agriculture.
