The Batwa were the original inhabitants of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, living in harmony with the land for centuries.

Today, it is a unique privilege to meet them, as only eight of the original Batwa forest masters are believed to remain, with ages ranging from 80 to 110 years old.

Highlights

• The Rare Eight: Meet the last surviving original members of the Batwa tribe.
• Ancient Survival Skills: Watch demonstrations of traditional hunting, fire-making, and the construction of forest homes.
• Living Pharmacy: Learn how the Batwa identify and harvest plants for medicinal purposes.
• Oral History: Listen to anecdotes and historical accounts of their lives in the forest before it became a national park.
