The lodge is a peaceful and secluded retreat where you can breathe in the essence of the wild in Uganda. The 8 comfortable and spacious cottages are dotted around the hill, all exclusive and private with great sunset views. The main dining area overlooks an expanse of rock that adjoins the park.
The lodge is set in the pristine Ankole ranchlands surrounding Lake Mburo National Park. So, whether you want to sit back, sip on an ice-cold drink in a hammock or head out into the wilderness of Lake Mburo National Park for a day of exciting exploration, there is something for everyone here.
Rwakobo Rock is nestled on a scenic outcrop with breathtaking views. Therefore, animals like zebras, warthogs, impalas, and bushbucks abound around the lodge and often congregate at the water hole beneath the dining area. At night the sounds of the bush come to life and allow your imagination to run wild.
This idyllic spot is situated just over 1 km from the Nshara Gate of Lake Mburo National Park. Day or night excursions into the park are very worthwhile. The drive from the main road passes through the lovely Nshara government ranch. Here, the magnificent Ankole cattle graze peacefully alongside herds of zebras. The Bahima pastoralists of the area, still live their traditional lives and are excellent custodians of the natural landscape and its biodiversity.
