Ultimate Gorilla Trekking & Batwa Community Visit - Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

Steps: Forêt Impénétrable De Bwindi

After an early breakfast, you'll head to park headquarters to meet your guides for the day and begin your gorilla tracking experience. Experienced guides and trackers will accompany your group on an early morning hike through dense rainforest on the mountain slopes. Few words can describe the thrill of today's experience! Coming face to face with mountain gorillas is a rare wildlife encounter that is exhilarating, humbling and exciting all at once. Please note that tracking gorillas is strenuous, with hikes ranging from one hour to eight hours, at high altitude and in hot African conditions. The excitement of the hour you'll spend quietly observing these gentle giants once you've found them is well worth the trek to get there! Although mountain gorillas are wild animals and sightings are not guaranteed, the success rate is over 95%.

Later, after lunch, you'll embark on an excursion to a Batwa village on the edge of the park. This amazing encounter will give you the chance to meet Batwa elders and their families and learn about their daily lives.
