Bigodi Community & Nature Walk: A Journey into Culture and Conservation
About this Experience
The Bicowa guided nature and community nature walk is a 2-3 hour experience through the Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary and surrounding community, focusing on biodiversity and local culture. Our guide will lead the walk along forest paths and boardwalks to spot birds like the Great Blue Turaco, primates including colobus and red-tailed monkeys, and other mammals like the sitatunga. Visitors also gain insight into local life, including traditional practices, community customs and the day to day authentic way of life among the homesteads in this area Why this experience is suited for you? • Guided by Locals: The experience is led by professional local community guides who offer not just nature facts, but deep cultural context and personal stories. • Direct Community Engagement: Starting and ending at the BICOWA Centre and including a direct homestead visit ensures meaningful, respectful interaction with residents. • Emphasis on Sustainability: The itinerary constantly links the natural environment (biodiversity, Sitatunga, Great Blue Turaco) to the local community's conservation efforts and ethical practices. • Authentic Insight: Focusing on the day-to-day life, traditional practices, and local knowledge (like medicinal plants) satisfies your desire for a genuine, non-staged experience.
