Itinerary description
A tough bike ride through Budongo Forest, starting from Masindi Hotel (which has excellent camping facilities) the trail is quite bushy in the first part in the forest till the T junction at KM39. Afterwards, all the way to the Busingiro Eco Tourism camp site, it's a very good track, a pleasant ride in the shade but requiring some strength as soil is soft and muddy.
We had very kind assistance and guidance from the Jane Goodall Institute and the African Wildlife Foundation for that trip. Contact them for advice.

Attempted this today (July 2019). Trail is totally overgrown on eastern end. It became impassable approx 2km in and we had to turn around. Don’t attempt this without confirming that maintenance of the trail has resumed.
