Day 2 of Gorilla Safari/Tour in Uganda: GORILLA TREK/COMMUNITY WALK/FOREST WALKS

Today you will be required be up early for breakfast before you head on to Uganda Wildlife Authority headquarters for a pre trek briefing, which lasts for about 10 – 20 minutes. You’ll join up with other visitors to make a total of 8 persons per group as required by policy per each gorilla group/family. Tracking gorillas is un-predictable and can be very strenuous due to the hilly terrain. We encourage for your own enjoyment to make sure that you are relatively fit and healthy. On average trekking can take from 2 – 4 hrs, viewing Gorillas is strictly for an hour before you return to the Lodge. We recommend you take at least 2 liters of water each, packed lunch and a porter.

If gorilla trekking is short , you can opt to do other optional activities like community walk – visiting the community farm land, local school, hospital, African medicine man and a local brewer or forest walk in search for forest birds as you wind up your stay at Bwindi. Overnight Safari Lodge .
