Important Information About Gorilla Trekking

Where To Go See Gorillas? Uganda vs Rwanda?

Uganda holds 60% of the total mountain gorillas left in the world with about 500 of them residing in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Bwindi is the most popular place to trek the gorillas in Uganda. The park is located in the Southwestern part of the country and is one of the most diverse national parks in East Africa. Bwindi forest is divided into four regions also called sectors: Buhoma sector, Ruhija sector, Rushaga sector, and Nkuringo sector. And the independent Mgahinga group which is found in Mgahinga mountain.   Gorilla trekking in Uganda and Gorilla Tracking in Rwanda is all year-round activity and permits are issued every day. However, most people prefer to visit Uganda during dry month season which is between June - September and again between December - Febuary each year. It is estimated that there are only around 1000 Mountain gorillas left in the world. The good news is that with implemented conservation efforts between Rwanda, Uganda, and DRC their numbers are slowly rising. And Uganda hosts more than half of remaining gorillas in the world. Mountain Gorillas can only be found in the Virunga mountains in the DRC, Rwanda, and Uganda and also in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
