BUHOMA LODGE - LOCATION

When to go

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest may be visited throughout the year. Should you plan to go gorilla tracking, it is important to ensure that you pre-purchase your permits from us to avoid disappointment. Other activities in the area can generally be organised on arrival.

Uganda has a temperate climate all year round, 25–30 oC during the day and 5–10 oC at night. Evenings at Bwindi can be chilly primarily due to the altitude, just over 1 160m asl at the lodge with the highest point in the park being 2 607m asl.

Buhoma in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a full day’s drive from Entebbe or Kampala, six hours drive from Lake Mburo National Park, two hours drive from Queen Elizabeth National Park (Ishasha Sector).

Charter flights land at the nearby Kayonza airstrip 50 minutes drive away.
