Wayfinders: Uganda
Join your fellow entrepreneurs and founders in spectacular southwestern Uganda for an incredible, intimate eight-day experience that's equal parts adventure, boundary-pushing, learning, and connection.
We’ll spend time among the massive volcanoes of Mgahinga National Park and the aptly-named Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. After 1 memorable night in Mgahinga, our incredible lodge on the edge of Bwindi park will be our home base for 6 days of adventure and deep immersion into local culture, including a day tracking the famous mountain gorillas that call the park home.
What's in store? Seven days of adventures, deep exploration of and immersion into local cultures, curated sharing and connection at our spectacular lodges, incredible meals, a lifetime of memories and friendships, and a big dose of the unexpected.
