The roads leading to this park are extremely rugged. The park itself is really nice, unfortunately my time here was too short to get a good feel of everything this park has to offer. That said the golden monkey trek was really good in-spite of all the rain.

Gorillas and golden monkeys make the park unique in Uganda.

The gorillas were certainly the highlight of our trip! The jungle scenery was breathtaking.

We didn't visit the gorillas here but the Golden Monkeys. Although we were in the middle of a group of 40 to 60 animals it was quite difficult to get a good shot because these monkeys were very active and jumped and jumped around all the time. Nevertheless a very great experience!

The weather is nice but the road need to be repaired. The 'free' massage up to our accommodation tired everyone out.

A great choice for independent travelers as park permits are much easier to obtain than Bwindi and saves you having to buy at a premium from a tour operator. Fewer tourists, a rugged camping spot, and several excellent (but challenging) hikes make Mgahinga a great choice for those looking to go slightly further afield.

The golden monkeys were delightful, and the guides seemed to respect them and be very conservation minded.

Excellent, because of our meeting with the gorilla's and our stay in Lake Mutanda!

Amazing hike, through volcano terrain, to try and locate the very rare Golden Monkeys. We found them, in amidst the bamboo forest.. really amazing..! Also, a must see, for fans or rare primates, volcano hikes, beautiful terrain.
