Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda Via Uganda

Overview

Maranatha Tours and Travel offers a comprehensive guide on gorilla trekking in Rwanda via Uganda. In order to hike mountain gorillas, visitors land at Entebbe International Airport and travel by vehicle to Volcanoes National Park . The safari continues by driving into Rwanda after arriving in Entebbe, where the guide transports them across the border and takes them straight to the park.Gorilla safaris in Uganda and Rwanda provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see endangered mountain gorillas in their native habitat. Over 400 mountain gorillas may be found at Volcanoes National Park, which is the center of Rwandan gorilla trekking and is blanketed in thick bamboo woods. It’s the most accessible gorilla park in the world, about two hours from Kigali International Airport. A complete Rwandan safari experience is completed by the park’s golden monkeys, several bird species, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and more.The about 160 square kilometer Volcanoes National Park in northern Rwanda is Rwanda’s portion of the Virunga Massif that it shares with Uganda. At first, only the regions around the Karisimbi, Mikeno, and Visoke volcanoes were set aside as protected areas in order to save mountain gorillas, which were in danger of going extinct due to widespread poaching. 

Gorilla trekking in Rwanda through Uganda is quite daring since it offers visitors the chance to take in long, picturesque drives that display a variety of landscapes and stunning vistas. Before heading to Volcanoes National Park to do gorilla trekking, visitors may also decide to visit other national parks in Uganda. However, because of long driving distances and high fuel consumption, going through Uganda to trek gorillas in Rwanda can be expensive, which raises the total cost of the safari.
