Uganda Safari in March

Explore the Richness on a Uganda Safari in March – A Tranquil Adventure with Guaranteed Gorilla and Chimpanzee Permits

Embarking on a Uganda safari in March unveils a captivating journey into the country’s first rainy season, transforming its landscapes into a lush haven. While southern Uganda experiences the onset of rain, the northern region remains dry, providing a diverse setting for your exploration.

Despite being considered less than ideal for Gorilla tracking and traditional wildlife viewing, March offers unique advantages. The long rainy season envelops the entire country, creating opportunities for wildlife sightings. As this month falls outside the peak season, prices are more affordable, and lodges boast ample availability.

Contrary to concerns about incessant rainfall, showers are typically intermittent, allowing skies to brighten after each downpour. This ensures that you have sufficient time to explore and unwind during your Uganda safari in March.

March’s wet terrain, particularly on the lower slopes of the mountains, becomes a boon for Mountain Gorillas. While trekking may be more challenging, encountering these majestic creatures becomes even more rewarding. The wet conditions allow you to witness the gorillas in their natural habitat, with the added advantage of shorter trekking distances at the beginning of the trail.

Trekking Mountain Gorillas during Uganda’s rainy season is hailed as an exceptional and thrilling experience. The terrain may be wet but not overly slippery. With the assistance of a porter providing support, your gorilla trekking adventure in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park or Mgahinga Gorilla National Park becomes a memorable journey. Bwindi, being a tropical rainforest, may experience rain at any time, yet with proper trekking wear, treks typically continue seamlessly. If rain does occur, it usually lasts 2-3 hours before subsiding, allowing you to resume your planned activities. Abundant food in the forest ensures that gorillas do not venture far, making the trek less strenuous during the wet season.
