Frequently asked questions
How difficult is gorilla trekking in Rwanda?
Gorilla trekking can range from a relatively short walk to several hours of hiking through steep, muddy and forested terrain. The exact trek depends on where the gorilla family is located that day. A reasonable level of fitness and sturdy walking shoes are therefore recommended.
What happens during a gorilla trekking experience?
Gorilla trekking takes place in Volcanoes National Park with experienced trackers and guides. After locating a habituated gorilla family, visitors are allowed to observe the gorillas for a limited period while following strict conservation rules designed to protect the animals.
What is the difference between gorilla trekking and chimpanzee trekking in Rwanda?
Mountain gorillas are tracked in Volcanoes National Park, while chimpanzee trekking is one of the main experiences in Nyungwe National Park. Chimpanzees tend to move quickly through the forest and treetops, making the experience quite different from spending time near a gorilla family.
Can you go on a traditional safari in Rwanda?
Yes. Rwanda is not only a primate destination. Akagera National Park has savannah, woodland, wetlands and lakes and offers classic game drives. It is possible to combine an Akagera safari with gorilla trekking and rainforest experiences during the same journey.
What is the canopy walk in Nyungwe National Park?
The canopy walkway is a suspended bridge high above the rainforest in Nyungwe National Park. It gives visitors a completely different perspective of the forest, with views across the treetops and opportunities to see birds, butterflies and other wildlife.
Can I combine gorillas, chimpanzees and other wildlife in one Rwanda trip?
Yes. Rwanda’s relatively compact size makes it possible to combine Volcanoes National Park, Nyungwe National Park and Akagera National Park within one journey. This creates a varied trip with gorillas, chimpanzees, rainforest, savannah wildlife and cultural experiences.
