BWINDI FORESTS UGANDA
Tracking mountain gorillas on foot through the equatorial forests of Uganda is one of the world's most thrilling wildlife experience. We hike through the dense, vine-clad mountain forests of Bwindi forest, a World Heritage Site and home of half of the world's 700 remaining mountain gorilla. Once we find a clan of these nearmythical creatures, the rigors of the hike are quickly forgotten as we become absorbed in quiet observation of their interactions.
