Kibira National Park — Chimpanzee Trekking
Track chimpanzees in Burundi's montane rainforest on the Congo-Nile divide
Tour Overview
Kibira National Park covers 400 km² of montane rainforest along the Congo-Nile continental divide — one of the last remaining blocks of mountain forest in Central Africa. The park shelters an estimated 500 chimpanzees, along with black-and-white colobus monkeys, olive baboons, and over 200 bird species. Guided treks through the forest offer the chance to encounter chimpanzees in one of Africa's least-visited national parks.
