Perfectly located for exploring Akagera National Park, Ruzizi Tented Lodge is built on the shores of Lake Ihema.
Blending in with the unique riverine forest environment, the lodge is intimate with only seven tents, each with its own en-suite bathroom, a dressing area and a small patio at the front, accessible by wooden boardwalks leading to and from the main reception area.
Ruzizi Tented Lodge is the first lodge of its kind in Rwanda; the lodge was designed and built by park management. Akagera National Park is managed by African Parks, an NGO committed to bringing conservation and community into focus.
The lodge was designed to ensure guests connect with nature. During construction, trees and vegetation were left undisturbed where possible and some natural elements have been incorporated into the structure.
There are a number of activities available for guests to enjoy:
Ruzizi was built as a part of the Tourism Development Plan to increase the revenue for the long-term sustainability of Akagera National Park. As a park-owned lodge, all profits from your stay, your park fees and activity fees contribute to the protection, conservation and development of the entire park.
Ruzizi Tented Lodge is located on the banks of Lake Ihema, approximately 6km from the park reception.
