• Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge

Home Of The Silverback

In the foothills of the mist-shrouded Virunga Massif nestles beautiful Sabyinyo. Here, the true spirit of conservation and rehabilitation can be felt everywhere: In our community-inspired luxurious lodge, our bountiful organic gardens, upliftment projects, abundant wildlife and, of course, the star attraction: Volcanoes National Park’s beloved mountain gorillas, and curious golden monkeys, among many others.

Volcanoes National Park

Spanning on a 160 sqkm area in the northern part of Rwanda, Volcanoes national park is part of the great Virunga volcano conservation region spanning to cover Virunga National Park Congo and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park in Uganda. It was initially a small area around Karisimbi, Mikeno and Visoke volcanoes which was gazetted to protect the Mountain gorillas which were facing the threat of extinction as a result of poaching.

VIEWS OVER THE VOLCANOES

MARVELLOUS ENCOUNTERS

You’ve trekked through a magnificent forest. Your park rangers turn to you, and finally, you catch your first glimpse. Babies swinging playfully from branches, – just like human children, mothers chewing lazily on bamboo, the silverback keeping a close eye on a quarrelsome blackback. You have one precious hour with these iconic primates, and you’ll soak up every second of it.
