Wilderness Bisate Reserve – The Ellen DeGeneres Campus Of The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund *

Established in 1967, the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund works to protect and study gorillas, and their habitats, as well as to empower people who live near their forest home. With a team of hundreds working in Rwanda and the DRC, the Fossey Fund is the world’s longest-running and largest organisation dedicated entirely to gorilla conservation.

In 2022, the organisation moved to its first permanent, purpose-built home, the Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund. Nestled in a beautiful, reforested landscape near Volcanoes National Park it is well worth visiting, with a stop at the campus easy to add during a stay at Wilderness Bisate Reserve, Wilderness Bisate or Wilderness Sabyinyo.
