Bwindi Forest, Uganda
One of life’s great privileges
- Gorilla trekking provides a rare opportunity to observe the everyday interactions of these gentle, mysterious primates
No other wildlife encounter in Africa matches the astounding experience of spending time face-to-face with wild gorillas so a Uganda safari into the great forests will deliver on your expectations. Boasting a 90% success rate at finding habituated gorilla family groups in the extraordinary Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, gorilla trekking in Uganda has become one of Africa’s most powerful wildlife experiences and such is its success that the gorilla population is actually increasing.
Uganda, and its neighbour Rwanda, share the unique responsibility of conserving a population of critically endangered mountain gorillas and chimpanzees, funded in no small part through the trekking fees levied on visiting guests.
