Volcanoes National Park, located in the northwest of Rwanda, is a remarkable conservation area known for its lush bamboo forests and, most notably, as the home of the endangered mountain gorillas. Spanning approximately 160 square kilometres, the park is part of the Virunga Massif and is characterized by a chain of dormant volcanoes.
Renowned as the site where renowned primatologist Dian Fossey conducted her groundbreaking research, Volcanoes National Park offers visitors a unique opportunity for gorilla trekking. Tracking these majestic creatures through the dense foliage of the Virunga Mountains is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The park is not only a sanctuary for gorillas but also hosts golden monkeys and a variety of bird species. Volcanoes National Park provides an immersive encounter with the incredible biodiversity of the Virunga Massif.
