Kibale National Park

Leaving Kampala, we'll drive through the dense jungles and papyrus wetlands of the Nile Delta. We'll pause for lunch en route to the Kibale National Park, near the towering Ruwenzori Mountains, known as the 'Mountains of the Moon'. In the afternoon, we'll embark on a guided walk in the national park, exploring the crater lakes area and experiencing the local culture.
Day 2: chimp trekking and transfer Bwindi
Kibale National Park
8h
Your day starts early, with breakfast and then chimpanzee tracking. The park is home to an impressive 500 chimpanzees. Before heading into the forest, we are briefed on the trekking procedures. While trekking in the jungle, the guide tells you more about the chimpanzees, other primates, and local flora and fauna, making for an interesting adventure.
The dense jungles of Kibale are the best place to view chimpanzees in Africa. The chimpanzees are commonly found feeding on fig tree fruits in the game park and have been habituated to humans since 1992. Kibale National Park covers 795sq km and consists mostly of a vast tract of equatorial rainforest. This national park is home to numerous forest wildlife species, boasting one of the highest concentrations of primates in the world. In the afternoon, we'll travel south to the Queen Elizabeth National Park, taking in the sights and looking out for the resident game as we drive. This evening, we'll relax and have dinner near Bwindi.

We'll trek through the rainforest and bamboo-covered slopes, accompanied by a Uganda Wildlife Authority guide and other trackers, in search of a mountain gorilla family. The walking can sometimes be tough
and long, but when you catch a glimpse of the magnificent silverback, any discomforts will be quickly forgotten. Due to the nature of the activity, you will have a packed lunch. After gorilla trekking, you will drive through the terraced hills to Lake Bunyonyi. Besides canoeing, there is a short list of optional activities: swimming (safe in this lake), hiking on some of the Island trails along the lake shores, community walks and having a chance to meet the local people with small residents and exotic bird species singing.
