Rwanda is a portal to breathtaking landscapes and wildlife and hence, an opportunity for unique adventurous activities and unforgettable experiences. Trekking through the deep terrain of the rainforest-clad Volcanoes National Park and bushwhacking through the thick jungles to find the dark-furred families of mountain gorillas is an unmissable natural highlight. You may spot cherub-cheeked golden monkeys peeking and swinging through the bamboo shoots of the forest. Not just that, but hiking up the dormant volcanoes like Mount Karisimbi and Mount Besoke of the challenging Virunga Massif is an experience you will cherish.
Another similar yet unique experience is hiking through 100-year-old trees, gushing waterfalls, oversized ant trails and a symphony of native bird species of the Nyungwe Forest. The wildlife viewing experience extends to Rwanda’s only savannah of Akagera National Park in search of the big fives of lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo.
Along the Rwandan side of Lake Kivu includes the Congo Nile Trail which crosses dozens of traditional villages, coffee-washing stations and numerous beaches, valleys, waterfalls and caves which will give you a chance to explore the peaceful side of Rwanda.
