This occurs mainly in the Rushaga sector, involving forest walks alongside researchers, studying mountain gorillas and their families. Encounter times of around four hours allow travelers to observe and interact with the gorillas, grasping their behaviors and dynamics.

Encompassing roughly 33.7 square kilometers, it serves as a habitat for mountain gorillas, sharing the forest with these close relatives. This park stands as a rare location where endangered mountain gorillas reside, drawing global visitors due to its unique appeal.
