Summary Of Busingye Family

On your next Visit Bwindi safari, you might by chance find yourself trekking gorillas in Rushaga sector. Here is what you need to know about of the Bwindi gorilla families in Rushaga sector.

7 MEMBERS,  1 SILVERBACK

Busingye was formed in mid 2012, when a splinter group from Kahungye created a new group of habituated gorillas in the Rushaga area. Because the split is so recent, the permits are being sold locally to the park, and as such, it harder to secure them in advance. Once the group is deemed permanently established, the permit sales will be centralized.

Please see above for logistical information on the day. Please see notes on previous page for logistical information, though the trailhead for this group is most often located a short (10 to 20 minute) drive back in the direction of Nkuringo. We would recommend reserving Busingye and Bwesa for last minute enquiries when other groups are not available – due to the dynamic and unpredictable nature of freshly formed gorilla families.
