Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi Forest and Night Stay at L Bunyonyi
After an early breakfast and briefing by the UWA ranger guide, you will enter the gorilla sanctuary for your safari highlight. The beauty of this rainforest is spectacular! The area offers dramatically steep forested landscape and is incredibly dense, but crisscrossed by numerous animal trails offering easy accessibility for the visitors.
Trekking time typically depends on the nature of terrain and daily movements of these giant apes. Once you locate a gorilla group, you will be given at least one hour in their presence. The thrill of spending time observing these gentle, giant primates is an awesome and exciting experience to be long savored.
After the trekking, transfer to the beautiful Lake Bunyonyi, located amidst the terraced hills of Kabale. You may take a leisurely canoe tour to explore some lush islands that make up this lake.
