Finding Cuckooland

Cuckooland is set in a spectacular location in a steeply-sided valley overlooking the forest and is away from any road. You need to walk down for 10 minutes from the car park and more importantly when leaving, need to walk up what can in places be a fairly steep path. Thus Cuckooland is not suitable for the elderly, the disabled or those with a serious health condition. If in doubt, please contact us before booking.

Cuckooland accommodation Bwindi Ruhija is situated on the Butogota-Ruhija road on the eastern side of the park, 25kms  from Butogota and 15kms from Ruhija.  It can be reached either from Kabale or from Ishasha Gate of Queen Elizabeth National Park, taking around 2 ½ hours in either case. A 4WD vehicle is advisable especially in the rainy season.
