Chimpanzee Trekking in Kibale Forest

There are several destinations to see Chimpanzees in Uganda including Kibale Forest, Budongo Forest, and Kyambura Gorge.

The park is home to 1,000 chimpanzees and of which four chimpanzee families are habituated to ensure that you participate in chimpanzee trekking. Chimpanzee trekking in the park involves tourists hiking through the different trails in the park where they will get to the four habituated chimpanzee families in Kibale NP.

While getting to the families, you will see a number of rewarding sceneries and attractions like a number of monkey species like red-tailed monkeys, black and white colobus monkeys, the Mona monkey, Vervet Monkey among other monkey species when you get to your chimpanzee family you will spend on the hour with the primates observing their behavior in the park, for instance, you will get to know about the diet of the chimpanzees, their eating intervals, how they co-exist with one another among other interesting features about the chimpanzees in Kibale National Park during chimpanzee trekking.

Enjoy a guided primate walk in the lush expanses of the tropical rainforest (Kibale Forest), in search of the wild chimpanzees.
