The dry season between the months of May, June, July, August, September, early October, December, and January is, however, the best time to visit Gorillas when forest grounds are less slippery and not muddy. The low season of February, March, April, and November has its own advantages where some accommodation facilities normally give discounted room rates during the low season hence the best time to travel for budget travelers. However, mountain Gorillas can be visited at any time of the year.
