Nyungwe Forest National Park

Nyungwe is one of Africa's largest montane rainforests, covering 1,020 square kilometres in southwestern Rwanda with a canopy that shelters 13 primate species — including chimpanzees and Angola colobus in troops of up to 400 individuals — as well as over 300 bird species including 29 Albertine Rift endemics. A canopy walkway suspended above the forest floor provides an unusual aerial perspective on the forest structure and birdlife. The park also contains the uppermost tributaries of the Nile River system.
