What is My Hill Eco Lodge?
My Hill Eco Lodge sits on the shores of Lake Ruhondo with sweeping views of the Virunga volcanoes. It has a kids’ club, family-friendly rooms, a restaurant, and direct access to hiking trails and boat rental. It is a quieter, more low-key alternative to larger resorts, and the lake setting is ideal for families who want nature without crowds. Gorilla trekking parents can leave early while children enjoy the lodge grounds.
