Golf Course · Kihiihi, Uganda

Garuga Golf & Country Club

Golf at the gateway to Bwindi — the clearest expression of golf-and-gorillas anywhere in Uganda.

Of all nine courses on Ameera's golf circuit, Garuga Golf & Country Club is the one genuinely without comparison in East Africa: an 18-hole, par-71 course built in 2014 in Kihiihi, minutes from the edge of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.

The club has its own airstrip, meaning golf-minded travelers can genuinely fly in for a round between gorilla permits rather than treating golf and gorillas as separate trips.
