Day 2, Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi
Early in the morning go for briefing by the UWA officials before setting off to the forest in search for gorillas. The guide will brief you and at 8:00 am you will set off to the forest for these apes. After the briefing, proceed to the impenetrable forest and search for the humble apes. Gorilla Tracking is unpredictable however the activity ranges between 2-9 hours depending on the mountain gorilla movements. The activity requires you to go through steep rocks climbing up and down making it abit tiresome.
