Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail is an attraction located next to Kilimanjaro Safaris at Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park.
The Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail was formerly known as Pangani Forest Exploration Trail from August 1998 to May 2016.
The trail is a walkway about three-eighths of a mile in length with "research students" positioned at most locations to give information about the animals and answer questions.
The trail allows you to explore a lush tropical forest inhabited by native African wildlife including gorillas, hippos and exotic birds.
"The trail winds between the domain of two troops of lowland gorillas, it’s hard to see what, if anything, separates you from the primates. Also on the trail is a hippo pool with an underwater viewing area, plus a naked-mole-rat exhibit. A highlight is an exotic-bird aviary so craftily designed that you can barely tell you’re in an enclosure." Source: (

"Venture into the Heart of Africa
Encounter exotic animals as you trek through dense forests and sprawling savannas. Embark on a self-guided tour of the Pangani Forest and experience amazing creatures in their natural habitats—up-close and personal!
Follow the Trail
Meander along winding paths amid a lush forest trail of African flora and fauna. Spot an adorable meerkat on a rocky perch or an impressive Grevy's zebra on the savanna—before coming face to face with a gentle troop of western lowland gorillas on a grassy hillside—who are just as curious to see you as you are to see them!
During your hike, snap pictures from convenient observation stations and learn more about the animals you see and Disney’s global conservation efforts to protect them and their habitats." Source: (
