Uganda - The Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (BINP)
The Bwindi impenetrable national park is in southwestern Uganda. The park is part of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and it is accessible only on foot.
The park is inhabited by about 600 individual mountain gorillas, known as the Bwindi population, which makes up almost half of all the mountain gorillas in the world.
Bwindi gorillas normally build their nests in trees and their diet is high in fruits.
Tourists may visit the park any time during the year, although conditions in the park are more difficult during the rainy season.
Gorilla tracking is the park's main tourist attraction, and it generates much revenue for Uganda Wildlife Authority. Selected gorilla families have been habituated to human presence, and the number of visitors is tightly controlled to prevent risks to the gorillas and degradation of the habitat. The gorillas seldom react to tourists. There are strict rules for tourists to minimize the risk of disease transmission to the gorillas. Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo are the only countries where it is possible to visit mountain gorillas. Guided walks through the forest include a walk to a waterfall and walks for monkey watching and birding.
