4-Day Mountain Gorilla Trek Uganda
Face to Face with the Last Mountain Gorillas
About This Safari
There are fewer than 1,000 mountain gorillas left on Earth, and this four-day journey takes you face to face with them. You'll drive through the terraced hills of Uganda's Kigezi highlands — the 'Switzerland of Africa' — before plunging into Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, where an hour with a habituated gorilla family will leave you fundamentally changed. Finish with a serene afternoon at Lake Bunyonyi, Africa's second-deepest lake, where the adrenaline slowly gives way to quiet wonder.

Everything you need to know about this safari
A moderate level of fitness is recommended. Treks typically last 2–6 hours through hilly, sometimes muddy forest terrain. The pace is always set by the slowest member of the group, and porters are available at the trailhead to carry your bag and offer a steady hand on difficult sections. We have seen guests of all ages and fitness levels complete the trek successfully.
