Bwindi Safari
The Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a magnificent green swathe of dense rainforest,
so ancient it survived the last ice age. Bwindi National Park covers 330 sq km of
this rainforest and spans altitudes of 1,100 metres to 2,400 metres - a dramatic landscape
of steep hills, narrow gorges and streams tumbling down waterfalls.
A proclaimed World Heritage
site, Bwindi is one of the most biologically diverse areas on earth.
Its unique, precious flora sustains roughly half of the world's population
of mountain gorillas - believed to number just 600. There's also a
substantial chimpanzee population and Bwindi is the only forest in Africa
in which these two apes live together.
Apart from
gorilla
tracking, there are a number of other hikes and trails within the park.
As you travel along, accompanied by an experienced guide, you will learn
about the animals, birds, butterflies, trees and plants in the forest.
This is a great way to pass the time while you wait for your pre-arranged
date with a gorilla.
A Bwindi safari will take you to see the gorillas in a
beautiful location. There are three groups of habituated gorillas in Bwindi
that can be visited on a gorilla
track.
