DAY 6: GORILLA TREKKING BWINDI IMPENETRABLE NATIONAL PARK, UGANDA
Up relatively early for a hearty breakfast to give you the energy needed for gorilla tracking, with your packed lunch report to the ranger station before 8:00 am for registration and a talk by one of the rangers. The guides will then take you through the bush, pushing your way through the undergrowth, parting thick creepers, to track the gorillas. (This trek can take from half an hour to 5 hours – a reasonable degree of fitness is required as well as a sturdy pair of walking shoes). Sit in the forest among the gorillas, listening to them grumble to each other, and marvel at the sheer size of the dominant male; the silverback. It is an extraordinary feeling sitting in the dense rainforest knowing you are with a few of the last remaining mountain gorillas. It’s amazing to think there are only about 800 of these beautiful creatures left
