Front-Row Access to Bwindi — a contemporary sanctuary five minutes from the Buhoma trailhead.
Perched on a ridge above the Bwindi canopy in the Buhoma sector, Silverback Lodge has recently been reimagined by its operator, Marasa Africa — a contemporary, deliberately understated design built from forest vines, sisal rope and purple slate stone, a genuine departure from the more traditional lodge style found elsewhere around Bwindi.
At twelve rooms, it’s among the largest properties in the Buhoma sector, with each room opening onto a private veranda facing the forest — birdwatching and, occasionally, primate viewing are possible without leaving your room.
