Best Times To Go
These months are especially good for gorilla trekking in places like Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, as trails are less muddy and easier to navigate. The rainy seasons, from March to May and October to November, bring heavier showers that can make trekking more challenging, although the landscapes are lush and there are fewer visitors.
