The architect Nick Plewman has shaped the six unique rooms of the lodge, inspired by the typical circular cabins in the area and using native materials and hiring local staff. In each of the six accommodations there is a central fireplace, a bedroom, private bathroom, its reception area and priceless views over the Bisoke volcano.
Located in the amphitheater of a dormant volcano, the 42-hectare complex is an exceptional base of operations for exploring the **Volcanoes National Park (Karisimbi, Bisoke, Mikeno and Kinigi)** and of course to see the mountain gorillas in their habitat.
