Bwindi Sector Matching
Bwindi has four distinct gorilla trekking hubs — Buhoma (northwest), Ruhija (east), Rushaga (south), and Nkuringo (southwest). Your permit sector and lodge sector must align. Gorilla Leisure Lodge serves the Bwindi region.
Air and Road Access
Charter and scheduled flights land at Kihihi airstrip (northern/eastern Bwindi sectors) or Kisoro airstrip (southern sectors and Lake Mutanda). Road transfers from Entebbe or Kampala typically take 8–10 hours; many itineraries break the journey at Lake Mburo or Queen Elizabeth National Park.
