5 Days Uganda Gorilla trekking & Mount Muhabura hike
Experience an unforgettable 5 Days Uganda Gorilla trekking & Mount Muhabura hike. This safari takes you deep into the misty forests of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for a life-changing encounter with endangered mountain gorillas, followed by an exhilarating hike to the summit of Mount Muhabura in Mgahinga Gorilla National Park.
Your journey begins with scenic drives through Uganda’s rolling hills, lush tea plantations, and rural countryside, often referred to as the “Pearl of Africa.” In Bwindi, you will trek through dense rainforest alongside experienced rangers in search of a habituated gorilla family.

Here, you’ll take on the rewarding climb of Mount Muhabura (4,127m), a steep but scenic hike offering panoramic views across Uganda and Rwanda. Along the trail, you’ll pass through bamboo forests, montane vegetation, and alpine landscapes, with chances to spot golden monkeys and unique bird species.
