The Experience

You'll see a meerkat on a rock, a Grévy's zebra on the savannah and hippos. The highlight is a troop of western lowland gorillas on a grassy hillside. The viewpoints are great for taking photos.

Take your time

You walk at your own pace. Wait a while at the gorillas: they often come closer.

Use the viewpoints

The viewpoints give you the best view and let you read more about the animals.

After the safari

The trail starts right next to Kilimanjaro Safaris. A lovely walk to do afterwards.

Visitor information

There's no height requirement and you can stay in your wheelchair. You don't need to book and there's usually no queue.
