It&#8217;s a birder&#8217;s paradise, the area is great for walking and mountain biking, you can do challenging day hikes on the Virunga Volcanoes or get to know the local community through guided cultural walks, thereby visiting local medicine men, schools, and farmers. Enquire with the lodge you&#8217;re staying at, for the activities on offer.&nbsp; interesting things on offer.<\/p>\n<p>Our favourite lodge in the region is Mutanda Lake Resort. They offer SUB boards and a sailing boat, so you can have fun on the crystal clear waters of Mutanda lake.<\/p>\n<p>We could not say it better than the Bradt Travel Guide:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8221;Mutanda Lake resort enjoys a stupendous southerly outlook. You could cross continents without finding a panorama to compare with the view across these peaceful, island-studded waters towards the Virunga Mountains. The lodge is conveniently located for tracking the Nkuringo and Rushaga gorilla families.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/sites\/154\/2026\/07\/dsc08262-1024x683.jpeg.webp\" alt=\"View Lake Mutanda (by Madelon\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-smush-webp-fallback=\"{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/rta.travelblox.eu\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/sites\\\/154\\\/2026\\\/07\\\/dsc08262-1024x683.jpeg&quot;}\"><\/p><\/div>\n\t                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\" tb-wysiwyg tb-block align-left background-light pattern-custom variant-none tb-collapsible-margins\" id=\"gorilla-valley-lodge\" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/sites\/154\/2026\/08\/RTA-colors-1.png.webp)\" data-smush-webp-fallback=\"{&quot;bg-image&quot;:&quot; url(https:\\\/\\\/rta.travelblox.eu\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/sites\\\/154\\\/2026\\\/08\\\/RTA-colors-1.png)&quot;}\">\n    <div class=\"inner-block\">\n        <div class=\"tb-wysiwyg__inner \">\n            <div class=\"inner-block\">\n                                <div class=\"text-part wysiwyg\">\n                                            <h2>Gorilla Valley Lodge<\/h2>                                                                \t<div class=\"translation-block\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/sites\/154\/2026\/07\/gorilla_valley_lodge1.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Gorilla Valley Lodge\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" data-smush-webp-fallback=\"{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/rta.travelblox.eu\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/sites\\\/154\\\/2026\\\/07\\\/gorilla_valley_lodge1.jpg&quot;}\"><\/p><\/div>\n\t                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":170,"featured_media":1481,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-243","guide","type-guide","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"feed_page_to_atlas":true},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guide\/243","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guide"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/guide"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/170"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guide\/243\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3122,"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guide\/243\/revisions\/3122"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rta.travelblox.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
