Exploring the majesty of mountain gorillas in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable and Mgahinga National Parks

Within the lush landscapes of Kisoro Uganda lie two exceptional havens for one of the world’s most captivating creatures: the magnificent mountain gorillas. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, both situated in the southwestern part of Uganda, the two parks offer a rare and unforgettable opportunity for wildlife enthusiasts: to do  gorilla tracking. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is home to nearly half of the world’s remaining mountain gorilla population. Its dense forests, mist-shrouded peaks, and diverse ecosystem provide an enchanting backdrop for gorilla encounters. Mgahinga National Park, situated within the Virunga Mountains, offers a smaller but equally captivating gorilla tracking experience, coupled with stunning volcanic landscapes.

For many visitors, gorilla tracking is not just a wildlife adventure; it’s an once-in-a-lifetime experience that leaves an incredible mark on the soul. The chance to come face-to-face with these gentle giants, observing them in their natural habitat, is a privilege that draws visitors from all corners of the world. A gorilla permit in these two parks is. Priced at $700 till 1^ST of July 2024, this permit gives individuals the opportunity to spend one precious hour in the presence of a gorilla family. The thrill of tracking through dense forests guided by experienced trackers and armed with nothing but anticipation, adds to the allure of the experience.

For those seeking an even deeper immersion into the world of mountain gorillas, Uganda offers an extraordinary option: habituation experiences. While these permits are priced at $1500, they provide an extended encounter with gorilla families, lasting approximately four hours. This prolonged interaction allows visitors to witness a broader range of behaviors, gaining deeper insights into the complex social dynamics of these remarkable creatures.

Uganda’s allure for gorilla tracking extends beyond its affordability. Unlike the neighboring country Rwanda, where gorilla permits come with a higher price tag, Uganda provides a more accessible alternative without compromising on the quality of the experience. Additionally, Uganda boasts not one, but two national parks where gorilla tracking is offered, further enriching the options available to visitors.

Gorilla tracking in Uganda is not just an expedition; it’s a journey of discovery, conservation, and wonder experience that transcends the ordinary and leaves an everlasting imprint on the soul. The best time to do Gorilla safari is during the  peak season in months of June, July, August, early September, December, January and February
