Immediately after your early morning breakfast with your picnic-packed lunch box, you will head to the Park headquarters to register and join other guests for a briefing about the dos and don’ts of this activity. Gorilla Trekking starts at exactly 8:00 am. You will enter the forest and trek through thick creepers and undergrowth with your guides, and porters to find the Gorillas, which can take you about 1 hour to a maximum of 7 hours.

The steeply forested landscape of the park is extraordinarily dense and is rich with several animal tracks allowing access to tourists. It is quite an unusual feeling getting near these beautiful yet endangered Creatures.
