Sign up for the Third Edition of the Trek for the Bongo

The annual Trek for the Bongo event aims to increase awareness and raise funds for the recovery and conservation of the Mountain Bongo through breeding and rewilding of the species and restoration of its habitat. Recognized as critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), urgent action is essential, with fewer than 100 Mountain Bongo remaining in the wild.

As the Conservancy commemorates its 20th anniversary in 2024, this year’s Trek for the Bongo holds special significance, symbolizing our intensified commitment to conservation.
