Volcanoes National Park located in the northern part of Rwanda, runs along the border with the DRC and Uganda, and is home to the Rwandan section of the Virunga Conservation Area. The lush slopes of these volcanoes provide one of the most enthralling wildlife experiences – seeing the mountain gorilla in its natural habitat. Roughly half of the worlds wild gorilla population reside in these mountains along with the rare and endangered Golden Monkey who are often seen leaping from bamboo branches or racing after one another in circles around and above you.
