Ruhengeri trip planner

Most tourism in Ruhengeri revolves around the famous national park, which shelters mountain gorillas of the volcanic Virunga range. The town itself contains many bustling market streets and interesting traditional shops, but the essence of a Ruhengeri trip lies in the surrounding natural environment. Tours of the volcanoes offer up-close interaction with the majestic primates, and the profits from these excursions help conserve the wildlife and maintain local projects. Book your Ruhengeri vacation in advance, since the gorilla sanctuaries have a limited daily visitor capacity and sometimes even a month-long waiting list.
