The Journey
Days 1–2
Kigali, then transfer to Nyungwe Forest.
Days 3–4
Chimpanzee tracking and the canopy walkway.
Days 5–6
Lake Kivu, before returning to Kigali.
Why This Journey
Nyungwe gets less attention than the gorilla trekking, but it's a genuinely different rainforest experience — this journey gives it proper focus rather than treating it as an afterthought.
Who It's For
Wildlife and nature travellers who want primates and rainforest without necessarily doing the (separately booked) gorilla trek.
HighEnds Can Arrange
Flights, hotels, transport between Nyungwe and Lake Kivu, and chimpanzee tracking coordination. HighEnds confirms chimpanzee permit availability when preparing your quote.
Good to Know
Chimpanzee tracking involves real hiking through forest terrain — reasonable fitness helps. Sightings are not guaranteed.
