Day 03 :
Bwindi Impenetrable Natoinal Park For Gorilla Trekking

Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (BINP) close to 460Km from Entebbe International Airport, the park covers an area of 321 km² between 1,160m and 2,607m above sea level and was gazetted as a National Park in 1991 because of the magnificent flora and fauna that includes the rare apes called Mountain gorillas. In April 1993, the first group of mountain gorillas was fully habituated for tourism and then declared a UNESCO Natural World Heritage site in 1994.

After breakfast take a short drive to Park Headquarters and meet with excellent local guides and trackers who will give a talk on the etiquette of gorilla trekking. We then hike into the forest where the gorillas were seen the night before and track from that point. The trekking can take from 1 to 6 hours and climb to altitudes in excess of 7,500 feet. The terrain is rough and at times muddy. Although the hike is physically demanding the beauty of the forest and surrounding scenery make the trekking worthwhile. Once the gorillas are located all fatigue is forgotten, as the experience is often described as being the most profound natural history experience in the world. Picnic lunches are provided and it is important to take plenty of water. Cameras and plenty of fast speed film are recommended. It can rain at a few minutes notice; hence waterproof clothing is a good essential including zip lock bags for cameras and film.
