Nyungwe Forest National Park
In the southwest of Rwanda, the Afro-montane forest of Nyungwe National Park is the oldest of its type in Africa and contains a uniquely rich flora and fauna. There are 200+ tree species, 100 different orchids and 300 bird species (including 23 Albertine Rift endemics). However it is the number and variety of primates that is the biggest attraction.
Chimpanzees, rare golden monkeys, the handsome L’Hoest’s monkey and Ruwenzori colobus (some of which live in troops of over 400) are among the species present.
The forest walks here, along well maintained walking trails, are excellent. They can last between one and seven hours, where you should encounter a good number of these species.
