Uganda, GORILLA WONDERLAND
Uganda is known for its gorilla population, making it a wonderful destination for gorilla enthusiasts and nature lovers. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park are the two primary locations in Uganda where you can find mountain gorillas in their natural habitat.
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to nearly half of the world’s remaining mountain gorillas. It is located in southwestern Uganda and offers a unique and immersive experience for visitors. Trekking through the dense forest to observe these magnificent creatures up close is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, also located in southwestern Uganda, is another great destination for gorilla trekking. The park is part of the larger Virunga Conservation Area, which spans Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Both parks require permits to participate in gorilla trekking, and it’s advisable to book them in advance due to limited availability. The trekking experience involves hiking through mountainous terrain and dense forests, led by experienced guides who track and locate gorilla groups.
While gorilla trekking is the highlight, Uganda also offers other wildlife and nature experiences.
