This game park neighbours Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park making it popular for visiting a habituated gorilla family and interacting with the Batwa tribe who are inhabitants of the forest.
Mgahinga is also famous for woodland elephants, buffalos, leopards and other savannah grassland animals like antelopes.
Night viewing of active volcanic mountain peaks is a special encounter at a few eco lodges on Lake Mutanda. Hiking to the Mount Sabinyo, Mt. Muhabura and Mout Gahinga are also popular activities for visitors.
