Gorilla Trekking Experience
A gorilla trek typically begins early in the morning with a briefing from park rangers on safety, trekking rules, and gorilla behaviors. Trekkers are then assigned a gorilla family to visit based on fitness levels and hiking preferences. Rwanda offers a variety of trekking routes, from shorter walks to more challenging hikes, to reach gorilla families scattered throughout the forest.
Upon reaching the gorilla family, visitors spend an hour observing them in their natural habitat. The experience is unforgettable—watching gorilla families interact, with protective silverbacks, nurturing mothers, and playful juveniles. Photographs are permitted, but visitors are encouraged to embrace the moment and appreciate this rare connection with nature.
