Location

Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda

Five Volcanoes Boutique Hotel sits in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda, within misty volcanic highland forest, close to Rwanda's gorilla trekking trailheads. The setting keeps the stay grounded in the surrounding landscape and is a convenient base for the surrounding activities.

From the UK, travellers usually fly into Kigali, then continue by road to the gorilla, forest, lake or savannah regions.

Rwanda’s compact geography makes overland transfers comparatively straightforward, though gorilla permit timing and lodge choice shape the itinerary.
