What Should I wear tracking Gorillas?

Here is practical advice about what to wear while Gorilla Trekking in Uganda. Often, Trekkers are not dressed right for the occasion, which can spoil your day, and your focus might not be on the Gorillas but on personal discomfort and misery. Wearing suitable clothing and footwear is about protection.

Gorilla Wear and Gear you will need:

• Daypack: Preferably a waterproof daypack, you can use it as a carry-on flying to Uganda. Pack all essentials inside of the daypack.

• Hiking Boots: Make sure that they have good treads on them. You will need ankle support, something boots give you and give you reactions on muddy trails. Have a good pair of merino wool socks.

• Long Trouser:  They will protect you from nettles and thorns. Tuck the trousers into your socks for added protection from ants.

• Long-Sleeved Shirt: Neutral in color. Again, this is for your comfort and protection.

• Rain Jacket or Poncho: Pack into your daypack. You never know when it will train. You are in an Afro-montane Rainforest.

• Tough Gardening Gloves: Protect your hands from thorns, nettles, and sharp branches.

• Wide Brimmed Hat: It gives you protection from the Sun.

• Camera Equipment – Binoculars: Ensure extra batteries and storage devices. Put them into Ziploc bags. Binoculars are not needed if you are not a birder.

• Packed Lunch and Bottled Water: You will need your lunch from the Lodge and two liters of Water.

• Insect Repellent – Sun Lotion – Sunglasses: We recommend the effective Australian RID Insect Repellent. Good Sun blocker cream and sunglasses.

• You will need a Porter and Walking Stick: The services of a porter free you on the often-difficult trail, and a local walking stick helps you and steadies you on the often-challenging path. We supply our clients with both.
