Wild Burundi
Hiking & Nature
Beyond the lake, Burundi rises into misty rainforest, highland peaks, and tumbling waterfalls. Trek through Kibira's ancient canopy, summit the country's highest mountain, or stand at a claimed source of the Nile.
These experiences are for travelers who want to feel Burundi's wild heart — its forests, its birds, and its dramatic green landscapes.
