A 3-day gorilla trekking tour package by AA Safaris will take you on a memorable adventure to Bwindi impenetrable national park in western Uganda which is famous for being home to over 320 mountain gorillas which makes trekking gorillas in Bwindi national park an unforgettable experience you will ever have in your lifetime. The park now has 12 habituated gorilla families and the trekking lasts 2-8 hours. Hiking is possible for those who want to have a great time climbing up and about the rolling hills, and going through the lush vegetation

An early breakfast is recommended so that you are driven to the Bwindi park headquarters office for a briefing by the rangers as well as registration. The guides will then lead you to track the gorillas through the forest pushing your way through the undergrowth and the thick creepers. When the gorillas are sighted, you will be guided to within 6 meters of the gorillas and you will have a chance to sit around these great apes for a whole hour looking into their big eyes. These big giants are also powerful and can sometimes weigh over 250 kilograms. The visitors also require a reasonable degree of fitness as well as a sturdy pair of walking shoes, since the trek can take from half an hour to 6 hours depending on the movement of these lovely primates. Because of the muddy and steep conditions of the terrain during the tracking, you can ask for a walking stick. Eat your packed lunch after the trek. Spend your late afternoon visiting the Batwa community where you can listen to their folk stories, learn their traditions, buy their locally made arts and crafts, be taught how to make some art pieces, dance to their folk music.
