3Gorilla Trekking
Today is the most awaited day. Gorilla Tracking is a once in a lifetime experience. Only 1,063 of this Mountain Gorillas species are alive today and over 500 of them—more than half—live in Bwindi. The tracking is an adventure that can take anywhere between 1-9 hours. You trek through some of the densest jungle in Africa looking for signs of their presence until you find them. Because park authorities are keen on protecting these gentle giants, you are allowed only one hour with the gorillas once you find them. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.
