Rwanda offers more than just gorilla trekking adventures. A trek to 
see chimpanzees in Nyungwe Forest National Park is a rare, 
intimate experience. Set within one of Africa’s oldest rainforests, the 
park is home to around 500 chimpanzees and boasts extraordinary 
biodiversity.
Why Nyungwe?
Nyungwe’s rich, misty canopy teems with wildlife. Alongside 
chimpanzees, you’ll find various primates and over 300 bird species. 
The forest is a sanctuary where nature thrives undisturbed.
Chimpanzee trekking here is exhilarating. Unlike gorillas, 
chimpanzees are agile and fast-moving. They swing through trees, 
vocalizing loudly as they go. This dynamic behavior makes each trek 
unpredictable but thrilling.
The Chimpanzee Trekking Experience
Your day begins early, with expert guides from Nature Nest Safaris 
leading the way. Treks typically last 2 to 4 hours, depending on how 
quickly the chimpanzees are located. Following their hoots and calls, 
you’ll venture through dense undergrowth, experiencing the pulse of 
the forest.
Best Time to Visit
Chimpanzee trekking is possible year-round, but the dry seasons 
from June to September and December to February offer better 
hiking conditions. During these months, the trails are more 
accessible, and viewing opportunities are optimal.
Nyungwe also offers activities beyond trekking. The famous canopy 
walk—a suspended bridge high above the trees—provides sweeping 
views and a chance to spot other wildlife. Or explore the park’s many 
hiking trails, which lead to hidden waterfalls and stunning vistas.
