Bwindi Forest National Park

Located in southwestern Uganda on the edge of the Rift Valley, the 25,000+ year old rainforest has over 400 known species of flora. However, most visitors come for a chance to see around half of the world’s population of the endangered Silverback Mountain Gorillas. There are around 400 gorillas that are known to roam the forest. If you thought the gorilla wildlife was stunning, then you would be even more surprised to come across some of the other 120 mammals at Bwindi Forest National Park: baboons, chimpanzees, elephants or antelopes.
