Rock View Lodge
Rock View Lodge is located in the village of Ruperti in the North Rupununi Savannahs at the foothills of the Pakaraima Mountains and close to the border with the Iwokrama Forest. The Rupununi River, Pakaraima Mountains and the rainforest, as well as the Amerindian villages of Annai, Kwatamang and Woweta are to be found within a radius of only a few miles of Rock View Lodge and are easily accessible.
The Lodge is set in acres of gardens and orchards which attract hundreds of humming birds. You can join the local villagers in a game of volleyball, soccer, cricket or just relax by the only pool in the Rupununi.
The roar of the Howler Monkeys can be heard in the early morning hours at the foothills of the Pakarimas. Excursions can be arranged to the forest, savannahs, mountains and Rupununi River. From Rock View it is a short jeep ride to the Amerindian community of Surama. The village is set in a natural savannah, surrounded by rainforest covered mountains. Surama is the base for trips to the Burro Burro River, where dawn boat trips reveal Giant River Otters, Tapir, Monkeys and a host of birds. A slightly longer trip will take you to the Iwokrama International Centre for Rain Forest Conservation and Development.
