Gorilla Trekking Bwindi National Park
Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure with gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in southwestern Uganda. Known for its mist-covered hills and ancient rainforest, Bwindi is home to more than 50% of the world’s remaining mountain gorilla population, making Uganda the best destination for gorilla trekking in the world.
A gorilla trek in Bwindi takes you deep into lush jungle terrain, where experienced guides lead you through steep slopes and thick vegetation in search of habituated gorilla families. The moment you lock eyes with a gentle giant in the wild is humbling and unforgettable. Beyond gorillas, Bwindi is rich in biodiversity—boasting over 120 mammal species, 350 bird species, and a wide range of plant life.
Uganda stands out not only for its high gorilla numbers but also for its safe, well-organized treks and variety of gorilla families across different sectors—Buhoma, Ruhija, Rushaga, and Nkuringo—offering flexibility for different fitness levels and travel preferences.
