Gorilla Forest Camp is a permanent luxury tented camp nestled in the mist-swathed rainforest of a mountainside in the heart of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Designed to blend seamlessly into the forest-clad mountains that protect this fragile eco-system, its accommodation is in double tents raised on wooden platforms, each with en-suite facilities, hot and cold running water and unusually – a bathtub looking out into the forest. Each tent has a spacious wooden veranda where guests can relax, enjoy a private meal and absorb the exotic mystery of the surrounding rainforest that provided the animation of Disney’s The Jungle Book. This is the major activity in Bwindi, with four gorilla groups currently available daily for tourists. Mubare group (10 gorillas, 1 silverback) was opened for tourism in 1993, Habinyanja group (18 gorillas, 1 silverback) opened in July 1998, Rushegura group (10 gorillas, 1 silverback) was opened in July 2002, while Nkuringo group (19 gorillas, 2 silverbacks) was opened for tourism in April 2004. Book at least 6 months (but not more than two years) in advance to ensure that requested dates are available. Gorilla tracking in Bwindi can be challenging, therefore ensure fitness. The tracking experience starts at 8.30 am local time and can last from a few hours to a whole day! Registration at the gate commences at 7.45 am. What to bring: Wear jungle shoes suitable for steep muddy slopes and carry a rain jacket because the park is often wet. Put on ear plugs for those who feel uncomfortable with jungle sounds. Carry rain gear, sunscreen lotion, a hat (as the weather is unpredictable) and insect repellant. Carry a packed lunch.

Depart Bushara after breakfast and head for Lake Mburo National Park. Take a boat ride on the lake. Dinner and overnight, Mantana Tented Camp.
