Gorilla Trekking Adventure at Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

The day starts with an early morning breakfast, followed by a short drive to the Bwindi National Park gate immediately after breakfast to get a briefing about the gorilla trek. The national park guide will conduct the presentation covering the basics of what to expect during the gorilla trek. The national guide will assign the gorilla trekking group during the pre-trekking briefing. Other visitors will likely join you. The gorilla trek can take a few hours, depending on how far the gorillas are inside the forest. After the gorilla trek, you will return to the lodge for a much-deserved rest.
