Kibale
The Kanyanchu Primate Walking is Kibale's most loved activity. There are 13 species to be found, with a variety of diurnal monkeys. But the stars of the trail are the chimpanzees. The chances of finding Kanyanchu's Chimps are high since they have been tracked continuously since 1993. Guided walks begin at 8am and end at 2pm, and can last up to three hours depending on the factors.

The region is biologically diverse and provides shelter for 120 other mammals, including baboons, chimpanzees, and elephants. This forest hosts approximately 370 species, including 23 Albertine Rift endangereds.
The chimpanzee population explosion of approximately 1,500 individuals is perhaps the most prominent of Kibale's primates. Four of these communities are habituated to humans.
