Enjoy an African bush breakfast before setting out chimpanzee trekking in the forest. This will be a satisfying day in the middle of Africa as you do a chimpanzee tracking trip within Kibale forest park. Other than the Chimpanzees and other primates, Kibale has a rich bird life and alot of butterflies too. Return to your lodging for lunch before going for the afternoon Bigodi Swamp hike.

You will begin your guided Adventure in the Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary on which walk you will see various birds and animals. This Bigodi swamp walk is very popular just as the Chimpanzee forest walk. We recommend that you wear comfortable walking shoes as this walk will go through some muddy places. If lucky you may spot the shoebill stork as well as the hard to see Sitatunga Antelope. You will also come across a number of primates here, and occasionally see the chimpanzees too.
