Gorilla Trekking; Arcadia Safaris leads you to this once-in-a-lifetime adventure deep into the heart of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for unforgettable gorilla trekking. Almost half of the remaining world populations of mountain gorillas call this place home; thus, a hike through the mist-shrouded jungle of Bwindi offers something rare-a glimpse of these magnificent animals at close range. Guides will take you through the dense rainforest on steep trails that lead you right up to a family of gorillas living in their natural habitat.
Gorilla trekking is a great safari-like adventure in the wilderness, which allows tourists to trek deep into the forest in search of mountain gorillas. This can be conducted in reserves that are set aside like Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda, Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda, or Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Guided by expert trackers, participants hike over rough terrain at times for hours until suddenly a family of gorillas, in view, reveals their natural behaviors and social interactions. It is one of those few, unforgettable journeys into the wild that gives an intimate acquaintance with these endangered primates.
