This family consists of 11 members with  a silver back .it is found in the slopes of karisoke volcano, this group has faced a lot of challenging times which included the death of six infants .However this group is becoming strong with two successful births in the past couple years as well as a strong silver back leader .This group trek to be visited is quite challenging and includes a time of 3 hours .This is because the trails are slippery ,muddy and steep .Bwenge was the silverback that led the group which was established in 2007 after he left his birth group and was joined by other females coming from other gorilla groups .

For one to visit this gorilla group, you need over 3 hours because it is not that near to trek within just one hour because it is located quite far. And the other reason is because the trails in this area where this gorilla family is found are slippery, muddy and steep. Bwenge was the silverback that led the group which was established in 2007 after he left his birth group and was joined by other females coming from other gorilla groups .
