In recent times, Gorilla trekking has risen to the forefront of African attractions, particularly in Uganda and Rwanda. Tourists are drawn to the allure of venturing into the heart of dense tropical rainforests in pursuit of encounters with these endangered species. Many enthusiasts find themselves compelled to embark on double treks after experiencing the exhilaration firsthand. Both Uganda and Rwanda have emerged as global magnets for Gorilla trekking, attracting visitors from diverse corners of the world.
Uganda, hailed for its unparalleled biodiversity, has taken center stage in the world of Gorilla tracking safaris. These safaris represent the pinnacle of adventure for all those who venture to the Pearl of Africa. Mountain Gorillas (scientifically classified as Gorilla beringei beringei) stand as our close kin, a species both like us and distinct from us.Their abode is nestled within the tropical rainforests of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, located in the picturesque southwestern region of the country, along the borders that connect Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Within Uganda, Gorilla tracking embarks explorers on journeys deep into these lush jungles, leading them to encounter one of the habituated Gorilla families. The country boasts over half of the world’s remaining population of these remarkable creatures. With nineteen habituated Gorilla families residing within Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park and an additional family within Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, Uganda takes pride in being the ultimate Gorilla trekking haven.
These habituated Gorilla families are the embodiment of the Uganda Gorilla trekking experience. Each day, groups of up to eight tourists embark on treks to visit these fascinating families, forging a unique connection with our distant cousins. Gorilla trekking permits are in high demand, often selling out rapidly due to the overwhelming interest. As Rwanda raises its Gorilla permit prices to USD 1500 per person per trek, many visitors opt for Uganda, where a Gorilla permit currently costs USD800 per person per trek. It’s important to note that these rates are subject to change, with Uganda’s permits set to increase to USD800 in July 2020.
Adventure Gorilla tracking safaris in Uganda are a year-round endeavor, with peak demand occurring in June, July, August, September, November, and December. While dry months historically witness higher traveler traffic, changing climate patterns have made weather predictions less certain, leading to the possibility of rains even during traditionally dry periods.
