Kibale Forest National Park provides an opportunity for a sensational chimpanzee trekking experience. After a pre-tracking briefing, you’ll be guided on an unforgettable adventure in search of the chimpanzees. Once sighted, you will spend time with them observing their daily life – feeding, grooming, nursing their young, howling and screeching, all within their natural habitat. A truly thrilling experience.
There are also many other species of wildlife found in Kibale including black and white colobus, red colobus, L’ Hoest’s monkey and grey-cheeked mangabey. The birdlife is also outstanding, although the dense growth and high forest canopy means stealth and patience are needed. The huge, crowned eagle patrols the skies above, whilst African grey parrot, the beautiful and secretive black bee-eater, black-and-white flycatcher, black-necked, and yellow-mantled weavers may all be found here by the quiet observer.
Tracking a noisy chimpanzee family is an unforgettable experience, and the wealth of wildlife in this magnificent forest will be delightful.
