Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

After breakfast, you'll proceed to the rangers’ post. You will receive a briefing on the do's and don’ts during the trek. You will then enter the Bwindi Forest for your adventure. The area offers a dramatic, steeply forested landscape and is incredibly dense. It is crisscrossed by numerous animal trails allowing access to tourists. 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'll return to the accommodation and rest after a strenuous trek. *(extra cost): In case you finish early and the body is willing to go out again, you can request your guide to arrange a community visit or some short nature walk.
