• Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a residence for both mountain gorillas and chimpanzees - the only forest in Africa which can make this claim as a fact. It also hosts five other species of primate, 113 species of mammals, over 200 butterflies, and 360 birds.

• Gorillas you will track belong to one of nine habituated family groups who can tolerate the presence of humans for a brief period every day. Your trek will be an exciting journey along forested slopes, entwined vines, bushes, and bamboo before you eventually reach the gorillas’ habitat.

• Time taken to track the gorillas can take as little as 2 hours to as much as 7 hours before one returns. Once the gorillas have been located, your group will be allowed a maximum of one hour with them.

• Coming face-to-face with a mountain gorilla is a truly humbling and emotional experience. This is a fantastic and privileged opportunity to get up close and personal with Uganda’s very own ‘Gorillas in the Mist’.

Accommodation: Mutanda Lake Resort; mid-range lodge located outside Bwindi NP.
