VIRUNGA NATIONAL PARK · Luxury
Mikeno Lodge is set within the dense Mahura Forest at the headquarters of Virunga National Park in Rumangabo, surrounded by towering trees, birdlife, and resident primates. Its position offers a completely different atmosphere from open savannah lodges, with a strong sense of being immersed in rainforest. The lodge is made up of private bungalows built from lava stone and wood, each carefully positioned within the forest to maximise privacy and connection to the environment. From the terraces and main lodge areas, there are views across the Albertine Rift Valley and toward the Nyiragongo and Mikeno volcanoes in the distance. Wildlife is part of the daily experience here, with blue monkeys, colobus monkeys, and birdlife frequently moving through the trees around the lodge. The atmosphere is quiet and intimate, shaped by forest sounds rather than open plains. Its location at park headquarters makes it one of the most strategic bases in Virunga, with easy access to chimpanzee habituation treks, gorilla experiences, and the Nyiragongo volcano climb.
