The Volcanoes National Park, located in the Virunga Mountains in northwestern Rwanda, is home to a significant population of endangered mountain gorillas. With careful conservation efforts, the gorilla population has been steadily increasing in recent years. Trekking through the dense forests of Volcanoes National Park provides a unique and unforgettable experience as visitors get up close to these magnificent creatures. Trained guides lead small groups on guided hikes to find gorilla families, allowing for an intimate encounter with these gentle giants. Watching them play, feed, and interact within their family units is an awe-inspiring and humbling experience that highlights the importance of conservation efforts.
