About This Experience

The endangered golden monkey, with its striking golden-orange coat, is found only in the Virunga mountain range. Uganda's Mgahinga Gorilla National Park offers excellent tracking experiences for these playful and photogenic primates.

Unlike gorilla tracking, golden monkey encounters are often more active and entertaining. Groups of up to 80 individuals leap through bamboo forests, forage for young bamboo shoots, and engage in energetic social behavior. The one-hour encounter passes quickly amid their constant activity.

Mgahinga also offers gorilla tracking, beautiful volcanic scenery, and the fascinating Batwa Trail, where former forest-dwelling pygmies share their traditional forest knowledge and culture. Golden monkey tracking is often combined with these experiences.
