Congo Nile Trail Experience​
Stretching over 227 kilometers along the shores of Lake Kivu, the Congo Nile Trail is more than just a hiking or biking route — it’s a journey through Rwanda’s soul.
This historic trail traces the divide between the Congo and Nile River basins, winding through lush hills, coffee and tea plantations, and friendly rural communities. Once used as trade and travel routes by local villagers, today it’s one of East Africa’s most scenic and culturally rich trails.
