Mgahinga Gorilla National Park forms part of the Virunga Mountains on Uganda's border with Rwanda and the DRC. Three extinct volcanoes - Muhavura, Gahinga and Sabinyo - rise above bamboo and montane forest.
The park protects a transboundary population of mountain gorillas and offers golden monkey tracking through Afro-alpine vegetation with sweeping views across three countries.
Mgahinga complements Bwindi for travellers seeking a quieter gorilla experience amid dramatic volcanic scenery.
