Gorilla trekking safaris are conducted throughout the year in Rwanda. However, the optimal periods for gorilla trekking are from December to February and during the dry season from June to September. These months provide the most favorable hiking conditions and a reduced risk of malaria. This applies to all Gorilla trekking locations – Uganda, Rwanda and DR Congo.

For those seeking a budget-friendly gorilla trekking adventure, we have options for shorter safaris. These include a one-day excursion from Kigali, a two-day journey from Rwanda, or a three-day gorilla trek in Uganda.

Mountain Gorilla trekking safaris presents a moderate level of difficulty, but it does not necessitate peak physical fitness. The duration of trekking varies from two to nine hours, depending on the location you chose, influenced by the proximity of the gorillas. The experience can be made more challenging by steep, muddy, and slippery paths, particularly at higher elevations of Nkuringo section in Bwindi National Park of Uganda.
