Gorilla Trekking and Transfer to Lake Bunyonyi for Relaxation

Start your day with a delicious breakfast before heading to the park offices for a briefing on what to expect during your trek. As you enter the dense and steeply forested landscape of Bwindi Forest, you will be amazed by the intricate network of animal trails that lead you deeper into the wilderness. The timing and terrain of your trek will depend on the movements of the majestic gorillas that call this forest home.

When you finally encounter a gorilla group, the experience of spending an hour in their presence is truly awe-inspiring.
