The Habinyanja gorilla family was among the first groups to be habituated and it is found in the Buhoma sector in Bwindi impenetrable forest national park. It is also referred to as the H group. The gorilla family was opened up for tourists in 1999 after habituation in 1997. The Habinyanja group is one of the most tracked receiving the largest number of visitors from all over the world. The name Habinyanja comes from a local word “Nyanja” meaning a place with water or swamp and this is where the group was first sighted.
