Chimpanzee Trekking - Kibale National Park
Explore the wild heart of Uganda with an unforgettable chimpanzee trekking adventure in Kibale National Park, the primate capital of East Africa. Located in western Uganda, Kibale is home to the highest concentration of chimpanzees in the country, making it the best destination for chimpanzee trekking in Uganda.
Guided treks take you deep into the dense tropical rainforest, where you'll follow chimpanzee troops as they swing through the trees, communicate with high-pitched calls, and forage on the forest floor. With over 1,500 chimpanzees and 13 other primate species—including red colobus monkeys, L’Hoest’s monkeys, and grey-cheeked mangabeys—Kibale offers a rich and diverse primate experience unlike any other.
The park is also a haven for birdwatchers, with more than 370 recorded bird species, including the rare green-breasted pitta. Its beautiful forest scenery, easy accessibility from Fort Portal, and well-developed trekking infrastructure make it a must-visit destination for nature lovers and wildlife photographers.
