Embark on a 3-day gorilla trekking adventure in Mgahinga National Park, located in the south-western region of Uganda, with our Mgahinga gorilla trekking safari. Despite being small and less explored by tourists and tour operators, Mgahinga National Park stands as the only park in Uganda where Golden monkeys and mountain gorillas dwell together, giving rise to the adage, ‘where gold meets silver’. Encounter Africa Safaris offers gorilla tour packages to Mgahinga, and our 3-day trekking safari is perfect for those with limited time but a keen interest to trek these majestic mountain gorillas. The safari begins and concludes in Entebbe, with pauses at the equator crossing for photographic opportunities.
