Best months for gorilla trekking
The best time to go gorilla trekking in Rwanda is in the long dry season from June to September and during the short dry season from mid-December to early February. Rwanda experiences a tropical climate, there may still be a shower or two, but it is generally drier which makes the ground less slippery
Ancestor. Staring into the eyes of a mountain gorilla is one of the most unique wildlife encounters I’ve ever had. They’re wild animals, but they’re also so human like. It’s almost like seeing a reflection of yourself, or rather a reflection of your ancient.

Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda
Gorilla Trekking in the Volcanoes National Park is popular because Rwanda is considered by some to be the best place to see gorillas in Africa. The park is home to the intriguing but endangered mountain gorillas.

In 1967, Dian Fossey’s pioneering work to study and protect mountain gorillas in Rwanda began. Although Fossey’s life was cut short, her work has continued through the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund and has grown into conservation efforts for other wildlife in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, extensive scientific research and education efforts, and community development programs for the people who live near the gorillas.
Like with us people, mountain gorillas also make mistakes in their daily lives. A silverback mountain gorilla leads each family that a mountain gorilla makes their home. Every day, the family’s whereabouts is determined by these silverback mountain gorillas, who also retain the responsibility of looking out for and tending to their offspring. The silverback will step in and mediate disputes within the gorilla family when there are arguments between the members. Simply click on our social media for more gorilla tales.

Gorilla Permit
A gorilla permit is an authorization card that allows you to visit the mountain gorillas, be it in Uganda and Rwanda. With this permit per person, you pay to spend one hour in company of one family of mountain gorillas.
The fees for a gorilla permit are important because they limit the number of tourist access to the parks and also contribute to the conservation efforts of the gorillas. It doesn’t matter how long you take to see the gorillas, its still the same price and for one hour.

Did you know mountain gorillas occasionally create day nests to rest during breaks between their daytime activities? Those day nests, like their counterparts made for nighttime use, are crafted from leaves, branches, and other vegetation, though they are typically less intricate.

Saviez-vous que les gorilles de montagne confectionnent parfois des nids de jour pour se reposer entre leurs activités diurnes? Ces nids diurnes, tout comme ceux faits pour la nuit, sont fabriqués à partir de feuilles, de branches et d’autres végétaux, mais ils sont généralement moins élaborés.

Happy Birthday Diani Fossey, would have been 92 years old.
Before she was murdered on Dec. 26, 1985, Dian dedicated her life to saving mountain gorillas. As the mountain gorillas reached a population low of about 240 individuals, she worried they would be extinct by the year 2000, but her sacrifice and legacy have ensured their survival today.
Happy Birthday, Dian. 💛
Repost .pandita - After spending a week in Rwanda and travelling all over the country I fell deeply in love. In love with the gorgeous endless rolling hills, the unbelievable nature and the beautiful resilient people and their positive outlook on life.
I learned so much about this country, it’s incredibly painful history and the nation’s collective decision to not allow themselves to be victims of their past, and their will to work towards a bright future together.
And they did.
Rwanda is one of, if not the most, inspiring place I have ever visited.
The cherry on the cake of course was visiting the majestic mountain gorillas in their natural habitat.
You really have to earn it. The treks can be long and strenuous, on slippery and muddy paths in the pouring rain or under the scorching sun. All whilst trying to avoid the stinging nettles that are eager to pierce through your clothes.
But once we did reach the gorillas, time stood still. Being able to watch them interact with each other, and gaze into their eyes truly felt like a spiritual experience. It’s impossible to describe.
To all my nature and animal lover friends, please - Visit Rwanda. 🇷🇼🦍❤️

The new Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund Campus includes three state-of-the-art scientific laboratories, educational classrooms, student accommodations, the most extraordinary gorilla exhibit and a moving recreation of Fossey’s original cabin. Those fortunate enough to be guided by senior advisor Veronica Vecellio or manager of guest services Kadiara King’ai, find that behind the scenes is a window into a bright future for conservation in Africa, one with significant female leadership. The campus stores the largest collection of mountain gorilla skeletons, alongside analysing gorilla waste for elevated hormones such as cortisol and signs of other stressors. This data provides insight into the pressures these creatures face, namely habitat loss. The Rwandan government is finding a middle ground. Plans to expand Volcanoes National Park by 23% are intended to benefit everyone. Villagers living on the park’s fringes will be relocated to newly “green” villages, and an estimated 17,000 jobs will be created in the process. Meanwhile, the current model of sharing 10% of tourism revenue will continue. The collaborative approach taken by the Rwandan government is echoed by the Fossey Fund. As Dr. Tara Stoinski, PhD primatologist and CEO of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, said to us, “you can’t address conservation without addressing the other larger issues facing our planet and the species we share it with – it’s all interconnected.” @roarafrica #SavingGorillas #GorillaConservation #DianeFosseyGorillaFund #WildlifeConservation #VisitRwanda #VisitRwandaNow #mountaingorillas
there are actually 3 locations, where one can see the mountain gorillas - Rwanda, Uganda and DR Congo. @visitrwanda_now 👏🏽❤️‼️ what an experience 🤯 🦍 these mountains are their natural habitat, they have amazing rangers and guides and trackers.
