Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi

Today is the highlight of your Uganda safari as you take part in an unforgettable gorilla-tracking experience in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. At 7:45 am, you will report to the park headquarters for a briefing by Uganda Wildlife Authority guides, followed by the start of your trek at 8:30 am. You will hike through dense rainforest in search of a habituated mountain gorilla family.

Once located, you will spend up to one hour with the gorillas, observing their behavior in the wild. Trekking duration varies, and all visitors are expected to return to the starting point by evening. A reasonable level of physical fitness is recommended for this activity.
