This four-day double gorilla trekking escape offers a rare opportunity to encounter mountain gorillas twice in their natural rainforest habitat. Designed for travelers seeking deeper wildlife immersion, the journey combines scenic landscapes, rich biodiversity, and unforgettable primate experiences in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, home to endangered mountain gorillas.
Your journey begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel or airport, followed by a scenic drive to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in southwestern Uganda. Along the way, enjoy views of rolling hills, terraced farms, and local villages, with stopovers for lunch, photos, and stretching before reaching your lodge.
After breakfast, you report to the park headquarters for a briefing from rangers about gorilla trekking rules and safety guidelines. You then enter the forest to track a habituated gorilla family, hiking through dense vegetation. Once located, you spend one magical hour observing their behaviors, interactions, and natural environment.
Today offers another extraordinary opportunity to trek mountain gorillas in a different sector or family group. The second trek provides a deeper appreciation of their social structure, personalities, and habitat. With experience from the previous day, you notice more details while enjoying another unforgettable hour in their presence.
After breakfast, you begin your return journey from Bwindi, passing through scenic countryside landscapes and rural communities. Stop for lunch and short breaks along the way. You are dropped off at the airport or your hotel, marking the end of an unforgettable double gorilla trekking adventure experience.
