Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
You're heading into Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for a mountain gorilla trek. The hike goes through dense volcano forest with a park ranger guiding you as you search for these gorillas in their natural environment. Treks vary quite a bit in how long they take and how difficult they are, so prepare yourself for some real physical effort. The larger group splits into smaller teams, and depending on gorilla permit availability, different teams might trek on different days.
