If you say 'wild' and really mean it, then this is the right place for you to start a gorilla trail. Apart from western lowland gorillas, this wildlife reserve also houses elephants, buffaloes, and different species of antelopes.

Side activities include hiking, riding in a canoe, and collecting herbs.

Some distance from the capital, this wildlife reserve enjoys the privilege of being a UNESCO World Heritage Site in addition to being a national park.
