Why Nyungwe Forest
Nyungwe Forest is one of Africa's oldest and most biologically rich rainforests, a vast wilderness of mist-covered mountains, ancient trees and dense jungle that feels a world away from Rwanda's better-known gorilla trekking destinations. Remote, beautiful and remarkably diverse, it offers a completely different perspective on the country's natural heritage.
The forest is best known for its chimpanzee trekking experiences, allowing visitors to track habituated groups through a landscape alive with birdsong and wildlife. Thirteen species of primate inhabit the forest, alongside hundreds of bird species and an extraordinary variety of plants that thrive within this unique ecosystem.
Beyond the wildlife, Nyungwe's network of walking trails reveals waterfalls, forest clearings and spectacular viewpoints overlooking the surrounding mountains. The famous canopy walkway provides a rare opportunity to experience the rainforest from above, suspended high amongst the treetops. Luxury lodges and exclusive retreats make the most of the setting, creating an unforgettable base from which to explore one of Africa's most remarkable forests.
