Gorilla tracking experience

Bwindi Impenetrable

After early morning breakfast, head to the park offices for a briefing where we meet the local guides and trackers who give a talk on the etiquette of gorilla trekking. We then hike into the forest to a spot where gorillas were seen the previous night and track from there. Although the hike is physically demanding, the beauty of the forest and surrounding scenery make the trekking worthwhile. The maximum time spent with the gorillas is 1 hour. Return to the lodge for dinner and overnight
