Ultimate Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi Forest
After an early breakfast depart to the starting point for briefing about your gorilla trekking adventure led by experienced gorilla trackers on the slopes of the volcanoes. You will start from the site where the gorillas were encountered the day before and from here the gorilla tracking begins. The hike can be physically demanding but the anticipation of the exciting experience ahead is amazing and the beauty of the gorilla forest and its inhabitants are fascinating. It is a humbling experience to stand just meters from man’s distant cousins as they eat rest, play and bond with their young ones. You are allowed an hour with the gorillas before finally sloping down back to your lodge. Return to the lodge for dinner and a good night’s rest for tomorrow’s journey.
Remember to carry your rain gear, packed lunch, plenty of water, gloves, hat and water proof bag for protection of your camera in case of rain.
