Packing Guide For Gorilla Trekking

Whether you are trekking through Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest or Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park to see families of Mountain Gorilla, or traveling to the Republic of Congo to witness distinct Lowland Gorilla, each experience will take your breath away. Being so close to the equator, the weather in Uganda, Rwanda, and the Republic of Congo is generally pleasant, but often misty and humid. The temperature can drop quite significantly at night and continue into the morning with some rain expected even in the ‘dry season’. We've used our on-the-ground knowledge and expertise to compile this essential packing guide for gorilla trekkers.
