Cushioned in the foothills of the breathtaking Virunga volcano range, One&Only Gorilla’s Nest offers an exclusive front-row seat to observe endangered mountain gorillas in the wild, a once in a lifetime experience for GCC guests.
The rare opportunity to see endangered mountain gorillas in the wild is often described as a life changing experience. It begins with a bespoke briefingat the resort with one of the Experience Guides the night before the trek,followed by an early morning departure for the Volcanoes National Park Headquarters, where guides explain fascinating insights into the family dynamics and personality traits of the 12 habituated gorilla families in the area. The hike takes between 30 minutes to over 4 hours, depending on the current location of the family, and the reward is a full hour watching the playful human-like mountain gorillas interact, feed and play.
In addition to the iconic gorilla trekking, guests of the resort can also immerse themselves in both the wildlife and the history and culture of Rwanda through a curated selection of unforgettable yet private experiences such as: hiking to spot golden monkeys through the jungle canopy, birdwatching, traversing the ancient Mount Bisoke in a challenging 8-hour hike or being immersed in the colorful fragrant rose garden at the resort.
The resort also offers a wide range of complimentary activities, for guests to truly enjoy the outdoors, ranging from early morning trail runs to fascinating nature walks, calming yoga overlooking the wild vistas and outdoor movie screenings under the stars.
Rates for Gorilla Trekking are starting from USD 1,500 per person, additional USD 300 for One&Only driver and picnic
