After years of planning, collaboration, and care, Erebero Hills has officially opened its doors. Offering remarkable views of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, our newest lodge provides an experience rooted in conservation, local community, and the celebration of one of East Africa’s most extraordinary landscapes.
Enjoy a visual journey through some of the key areas and features of Erebero Hills – a sneak preview to whet the appetite and provide a taste of how this incredible lodge has come together ahead of it’s recent opening.
Arrival
The welcome area sits at the crest of the hill, serving as the arrival and departure point to the lodge. With spectacular views across the valley, and your first up-close look at the unique bamboo architecture, it provides a fitting welcome to Erebero Hills.
After refreshing with a scented hot or cold towel, you’ll follow the winding path as it descends to the entrance of the main area. Let curiosity lead the way as the sights, sounds, and scents of this place unfold.
The Main Lounge & Dining Area
On arrival in the main area, enjoy a welcome drink while listening to the lodge briefing, and take in the views across the rolling canopy of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. The space is warm and inviting, a communal area that can be used throughout the day. The open fire place creates a natural gathering point in cooler weather, with the outdoor camp fire option still available in the warmer months.
The main area sits between Suites 5 and 6, with the treatment room beneath the trees on the hillside above Suite 1, and the solar-heated swimming pool at the bottom of the valley, peering into the ancient depths of Bwindi Forest.
The Guest Suites
Each of the eight suites are identical in size and interior features. Views from the king size bed extend over the forest canopy, a view which can also be enjoyed from both your outdoor shower and welcoming bathtub. Your private lounge, complete with wood-burning stove, provides a comfortable environment in which to relax and reflect after an encounter with Bwindi’s most famous residents. Or take in the views from your private veranda, the perfect spot to enjoy an early coffee as the mist swirls and dances across the treetops.
The Swimming Pool
Following a series of switchbacks, the footpath winds its way down towards the base of the valley, arriving at the swimming pool bar and lounge area. Sitting at eye-level opposite the forest, the view from the pool area is simply remarkable, making binoculars an essential item when venturing to this area. The bar serves a variety of drinks and snacks throughout the day, creating the perfect environment in which to relax and recover after a morning spent gorilla trekking.
We’re incredibly excited to see this project finally come to life. Over the coming months, we will be sharing updates and new images of not only the lodge, but also the activity offering, the people, and the experience that makes Erebero Hills what it is.
Our doors are open, and we look forward to welcoming you.
