| Gorilla Reserve - Bwindi Impenetrable National Park |
|
In 1991 three new parks were gazetted to encourage further conservation of some of Uganda's more fragile areas. One of these was the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in the south west of Uganda. This park is a hilly countryside with some remnant lowland forest. The richest forest in Uganda in terms of plant species, it is one of the few areas in East Africa where lowland and montane communities merge. There are over 300 species of birds, 200 species of trees/shrubs. Dense ground level cover is comprised of herbs, vines, and shrubs and trees. Here exists more than half (about 350) of the world's population of mountain gorillas. There are four gorilla families for visitation by humans. Three families are accessed from Buhoma in the North of the Park. The fourth is accessed from Kisoro in the south. A Total of 32 permits are available per day it commonly rains, and long pants and long-sleeved shirts are recommended.
