hi everyone,
well allow me to first introduce to my home thats the Great forest/national park

The Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is located in southwestern Uganda. The park is part of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and is situated along the Democratic Republic of Congo border next to the Virunga National Park and on the edge of the western Rift Valley.
The national park has 90 mammal species, including 11 primates, of which the black-and-white Colobus, with its lovely flowing white tail, is prominent.
WHAT TO DO:
Gorilla tracking is the major activity done in this impenetrable forest and Looking deep into the expressive brown eyes of these gentle giants is surely the most exciting and poignant wildlife encounter that Africa has to offer - but we should not let it distract from Bwindi's broader biodiversity, a result of its immense antiquity and an altitude span from 1,160 to 2,607m.
Other Activities include;
BIRD WATCHING
Bwindi is the Bird watchers paradise! It holds 348 species of birds and
Contains 90% of all Albertine rift Endemic such as; the Short-tailed Warbler
, Rusty-faced woodland Warbler, Bar-tailed Trogon, Gruer's Rush Warbler, Wilcock's Honey-guide, Yellow-eyed black Fly-catcher, Kivu Ground Thrush, Dusky Crimson Wing, White-tailed Blue Monarch among others, difficult or impossible to see in any other part of East Africa.
An experienced bird watcher can identify up to 100 species in a day! Visit Ruhija and Buhoma
for this dream. Indicate your interest to the guide so that appropriate early morning departures can be arranged.
NATURE WALKS
For the visitor who has 2 or 3 days in Bwindi the park has 4 fantastic hiking trails. On all these trails, you have opportunities to see and learn about primates, many species of birds, butterflies, trees, and other organisms. Arrange at the reception for a guide. The guide's company is mandatory
