Gorilla Trekking in Mgahinga Gorilla National Park

You will have a morning breakfast and continue to the rangers’ post where you will receive a briefing from a ranger guide on the do's and don’t's during gorilla trekking. Thereafter, you will enter the gorilla sanctuary for your adventure and encounter. The time taken and the terrain vary with the movements of these great primates. Once you have located a gorilla group, you will be allowed an hour in their presence. The thrill of spending time observing these gentle but endangered giants is unforgettable. You will return to the accommodation, and take some rest after a strenuous day. #Optional, you may opt for Batwa Trail experience at $75 Per person in the evening
