About Gorilla Mist Camp
Gorilla Mist Camp captures the classic East African safari camp atmosphere on the edge of Bwindi forest. Ten en-suite safari tents are set on raised platforms with canvas walls, wooden floors, comfortable beds, and private verandas from which the forest begins just metres away. The communal dining area and campfire zone are the social centre of the camp — evening meals around the fire are a highlight for most guests. The camp is run by a team with deep knowledge of the Buhoma area and strong relationships with local communities. A reliable borehole provides water; solar and generator power are available.
