When to Visit
Jun-Sep
This is the easiest period for trekking, mountain travel, and broad movement across the country.
Dec-Feb
Early year can also be excellent, especially for gorilla trekking and lake-region travel.
Mar-May
The long rains make conditions greener and more slippery, though quieter travel can still appeal.
Oct-Nov
Short rains make this a softer shoulder season that still works if your plans remain flexible.
