After breakfast set out on an early morning trek into the forest on the slopes of the volcanoes, led by experienced trackers who likely will bring you amongst a family of mountain gorillas. These massive primates are extremely rare and it is therefore a great privilege to spend time with them. Once found a maximum of one hour is allowed with the gorillas to avoid stress on them.
Note: The trekking can be fairly strenuous and can last for six hours or more at relatively high altitude. Conditions are generally very muddy / slippery and there are uphill sections, which may be quite steep. Participants should be in good physical condition and free of illness. Anyone showing signs of illness will not be permitted to trek.
