About Gorilla Trekking
When you trek for gorillas in mountainous rainforests, you must be ready for long walks on steep, narrow paths and through dense jungle. A guide will lead you, clearing the way with a machete. It’s essential to be fit and have proper gear, including hiking boots that fit well and protect your ankles, double-layered socks with cotton inside and thick outside layers, and knee-high gaiters.
Knowing that gorillas can get sick from human illnesses is critical, so you can’t go on a gorilla trek if you have a cold or other contagious disease.
