Nyungwe Colobus Monkey Trek

Nyungwe Forest National Park, Rwanda

Include in my safari All activities

About this experience

Nyungwe is home to Rwenzori colobus monkeys that sometimes gather in unusually large troops. A guided trek through the forest follows these striking black-and-white monkeys as they leap through the canopy.

The walk is usually shorter and more predictable than chimpanzee tracking, and grey-cheeked mangabeys and forest birds are often seen along the way.

Highlights

  • Large colobus troops
  • Shorter, easier walk
  • Mangabeys and forest birds
