A veranda makes the most of the dramatic views, whilst interiors feature a spacious bathroom and a living room with fireplace. Wilderness Sabyinyo is conveniently located for gorilla tracking expeditions which leave from the nearby headquarters of the Volcanoes National Park, only ten minutes away.
