Dinner and overnight at Gorilla´s Nest or Asoferwa Kinigi Guest House.

Day Two: After an early morning breakfast, we will be transferred to the national park headquarters to be briefed by the park rangers before departing for the trek in search for the Mountain Gorillas. The excursion in a thick rainforest and the interaction with the mountain gorilla/ape, gives a wonderful experience in life. We will have lunch after returning from the hike to the hotel.

Uganda Gorilla Tracking

The Gorillas in Uganda, live in the areas of Bwindi which has four habituated families with 32 permits now available per day. Three of the families are in Buhoma, namely Mubare, Habinyanja, and Rushegura and one in Nkuringo, called the Nkuringo  group. This particular group, is difficult to track.

The Bwindi forest is a very thick lush tropical forest on steep sides slopes and so tracking the gorilla can be a lot harder going than in Rwanda. It is far more challenging because of the hills and can take anywhere between 3 and 10 hours in total, from start to finish. On the odd occasion, one is lucky enough to find the gorilla quickly, particularly if they are on the lower slopes. Access to the Nkuringo group is on a very steep trail. 

There is also a  group in Mgahinga, but the family tend to migrate between there and the Congo and as such, one cannot purchase a permit in advance. The only way to arrive tot eh park on the day with cash, and purchase the permits if the Gorillas are available to be seen.
