Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park: A Sanctuary of Rich Diversity

Nestled in the South-Western part of Uganda, Bwindi forest stands as a testament to nature’s beauty, spanning 550 kilometers from the capital city, Kampala. The park teems with diverse tree species, boasting over 350 bird species, butterflies, forest elephants, buffaloes, antelopes, and the endangered Mountain Gorillas. Four sectors of Bwindi Forest house habituated Gorilla families: Ruhija sector in the East, Rushaga and Nkuringo sectors in the South, and Buhoma sector in the North, amounting to a total of nineteen habituated Gorilla families.

Exploring Buhoma: A Tapestry of Adventure

Flying Buhoma Mountain Gorilla Safari offers an immersive eco-tourism experience, and Buhoma holds the distinction of being the birthplace of Gorilla tracking in 1993, featuring the first habituated Gorilla family, Mubare. This bustling sector offers more than Gorilla tracking; it opens avenues for bird watching, nature walks, and cultural interactions with the Batwa community. Buhoma Gorilla permits, priced at USD800 per person per trek, grant you one precious hour with the majestic mountain Gorillas in their jungle abode. To secure your Gorilla permits, it is advisable to book in advance, as they are in high demand. Trek Africa Expeditions streamlines this process, assisting you in booking and reserving Gorilla permits based on your details and travel dates.

Seamless Travel Logistics: Getting There with Ease

For seamless access to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, daily domestic flights operate from Entebbe International Airport, courtesy of Aerolink Uganda. These flights, available as both scheduled and charter options, facilitate convenient travel to Buhoma. Although there’s no direct flight to Ruhija, flying to Kihihi Airfield allows for a picturesque two-hour drive to Buhoma through Bwindi forest and charming communities. Each passenger enjoys a weight limit of 15 kilograms, with excess charged at USD 3 per kilogram. Private charters are also available for personalized travel experiences, and children below two years travel free of charge.

Choosing the Ideal Time for Your Expedition

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park welcomes Gorilla tracking enthusiasts throughout the year, despite occasional tropical rainforest showers. Traveling during March to May and November may bring higher rainfall, but it offers opportunities for discounted accommodations. For the optimal Gorilla tracking experience, plan your journey during June to August and December to February, when the forest experiences lower rainfall, reducing slipperiness.
