Bwindi Impenetrable National Park lies in southwestern Uganda on the edge of the Rift Valley. Its mist-covered hillsides are blanketed by one of Uganda’s oldest and most biologically diverse rainforests. This area dates back over 25,000 years and contains almost 400 species of plants. More famously, this “impenetrable forest” protects an estimated 320 mountain gorillas – roughly half of the world’s population, including several habituated groups which can be tracked.
After breakfast, leave early in the morning to meet your gorilla friends. You will be briefed by a ranger guide before entering the forest for your gorilla tracking adventure. The steeply forested landscape is incredibly dense but crisscrossed by numerous animal trails allowing access to tourists.
