4 Days Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
4 Days Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
Uganda “the pearl of Africa” is a land of distinction, endowed with unmatched wildlife, serene undulating hills covered with varied flora, the savannah jungle largely inhabited by several species of antelopes and rainforest with the musical accompaniment of birdlife. Uganda is lively with these contrasts: yet silent elephants, disappearing like a vapour behind the trees, the chimpanzees crashing about the forest canopy, and the gentle giant mountain gorillas chewing thoughtfully in the bamboo thickets. Discover the distinctive wilderness when you choose to travel with limitless Tours and travel to Uganda.
BWINDI IMPENETRABLE FOREST
This is Uganda’s foremost tourist attraction and indeed one of the most fascinating wildlife encounters involving mountain gorilla tracking in the remote rain forest of western Uganda. These magnificent wild animals are found exclusively in Bwindi and Virunga conservation areas (home to roughly half of the world’s mountain Gorillas). Looking deep into the expressive brown eyes of these giants is surely the most exciting and emotional wildlife encounter that Uganda has to offer, but we should not let it distract you from Bwindi’s broader biodiversity of over 350 birds, 310 butterflies, 51 reptiles and 120 other mammals including 11 primates, such as the black and white Colobus, common Chimpanzees, L’Hoest’s Monkey, red-tailed Monkeys and the well-known vervet Monkey.

DAY 3: GORILLA TREKKING

The forest also offers viewing of other primates including blue monkeys, L’hoest monkeys, red-tailed monkeys and chimpanzees, along with a variety of bird life. The time spent trekking in this unspoiled tropical forest and watching the gorillas is certainly worth the effort. In the evening relax back at the lodge for an overnight.
