Overview
Bwindi impenetrable national park is lies in southwestern Uganda on the edge of the Rift Valley.
Activities that you can do in the park; Gorilla trekking, Gorilla Habituation experience, waterfalls guided forest walk, bird watching, Batwa pygmies, visit to the gorilla clinic, Ride for a woman community visit, visit tea plantations.
For more extensive experience, guests can have a gorilla Habituation Experience where you get to accompany researchers and Habituators in the forest. This process is a slow and gentle introduction of a family of wild gorillas to the presence of humans. Wild gorillas are habituated so researchers can study the species, treat them for sickness and injuries, protect them from hunters, and boost their conservation efforts with sustainable tourism. You get to spend 4 hours with the gorilla family compared to the 1 hour on normal gorilla tracking.
Gorilla Habituation only happens in Rushaga sector and currently there are two gorilla families (Bukingyi & Bushaho) that are being habituated in the Rushaga sector of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
