Mgahinga Gorilla National Park

Welcome To Mgahinga Gorilla National Park

At just 33.7km2, Mgahinga National Park is Uganda’s smallest national park. Mgahinga Gorilla National Park is located in the southwestern corner of Uganda. The Park covers the northern slopes of the three northernmost Virunga Volcanoes: Mt. Muhavura (4,127 m), Mt. Gahinga (3,474 m), and Mt. Sabinyo (3,645 m). The Park is about 10 km south of Kisoro and is bordered to the south by the Volcanoes National Park of Rwanda and to the west by the Virunga National Park of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The area around the summit itself is characterised by wort and dwarf heath vegetation, contrasting heavily with the dense rainforest of the lower slopes. Nature walks around here or a trip in a dug-out canoe on Lake Mutanda can be highly rewarding, as can simply relaxing at your lodge and enjoying spotting some of the 79 recorded bird species, flowers and trees in the lodge grounds.

A safari with arlom is something very special. In September 2019 it was time again. And the conclusion of the safari: it was fantastic. It was a perfect match. The lodges were all great, the tours were great and the animals behaved very friendly to us and showed. Well and Anderson has the feel for it. In the lodges were all super friendly and we met very nice people. All in all, an unforgettable experience.

September 2019

We came to Kenya for our honeymoon and organized our 4 day private safari trip with Andy, leaving from Nairobi and stopping at Lake Nakuru, followed by Masai Mara and back to Nairobi. We were throughly satisfied with our experience and would highly recommend Andy who went out of his way to tailor the trip to our preferences including letting.
