Erebero Hills is a new luxury safari lodge on the northern edge of Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest – one of the most biodiverse areas in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The lodge combines sustainable design, spectacular panoramas, and a deliberately slow-paced safari experience with comfortable, light-filled suites and a deep connection to nature.
Erebero Hills is the starting point for special nature and wildlife experiences that focus on the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Gorilla trekking is one of the iconic activities: accompanied by experienced rangers, guests explore the dense greenery in search of the rare mountain gorillas – an experience that ranks among the most profound safari encounters in the world. The activity portfolio also includes guided nature and bird watching tours, walks along the surrounding hills, visits to local Batwa communities, and experiences such as reforestation walks or insights into traditional craft practices. Relaxation can be found on the pool deck with panoramic views or in individually arranged spa treatments directly in the suite.
The eight suites are spacious, light-filled retreats built around elegant glass fronts and open-plan concepts. Each suite has a private terrace with spectacular views over the hills and rainforest, making nature a constant companion during your stay. Inside, natural materials, high-quality fabrics, and thoughtful details create an atmosphere of tranquility and comfort. En-suite bathrooms are equipped with freestanding bathtubs and indoor and outdoor showers – each with a view of the forest. The rooms are carefully oriented to allow maximum daylight and a feeling of space.
The cuisine at Erebero Hills is regionally influenced and focuses on fresh, local ingredients. Meals are served in the central dining area, often with a view of Bwindi Forest, and combine balanced flavors with high-quality, seasonal products. The menu includes breakfast classics with fresh fruit, juices, and hot dishes, light, energy-rich meals for trekking days, and evening dinners with creative, contemporary interpretations of local influences. Upon request, meals can also be offered as a private dining experience or as part of a hiking picnic.
With Erebero Hills, Asilia Africa is setting a new standard in luxury safaris: instead of classic, large camp structures, Erebero Hills is designed as a small, carefully placed lodge that blends harmoniously into the hills of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. The name "Erebero" means "a place from which you can see far" – and this is precisely reflected in the location, architecture, and experience. The lodge comprises eight luxurious forest-view suites, each with its own terrace and unobstructed views over dense, green valleys. The glass fronts of the interiors allow light and landscape to merge, emphasizing the connection to nature.
