Cyinzobe Trail - Nyungwe National Park

Had a spectacular time spending 3 days on the newly developed Cyinzobe Trail in Nyungwe National Park with these really cool folks. Thanks to Nyungwe National Park and Gaël Vande Weghe for the utmost hospitality. This is highly recommended if you’re looking to get out and spend some quality time in pristine nature.


This trail offers a three-day adventure starting from the Uwinka visitor center and ending at the Gisakura visitor center, allowing visitors to explore the stunning Kamiranzovu swamp and its magnificent waterfall located along the park’s western boundary.
The first day of the trail begins at the Uwinka visitor center and follows the western ridge via the Uwinka trail with stunning views of the surrounding landscape. At the end of the day, you will reach the first campsite where you will spend the night. On the second day, the trail takes you to the Kamiranzovu wetland. Here, you will have the opportunity to walk along the edge of the wetland, observing its unique flora and fauna. The second campsite is located after the wetland along the Kamiranzovu River and provides a peaceful and serene environment for your overnight stay. The third day is relatively short compared to the previous two days. It involves walking from the second campsite to the Gisakura visitor center. This final stretch of the trail completes a total distance of 23 kilometers of walking.
To ensure visitors have a comfortable and enjoyable experience during their journey, two exclusive full-board campsites with wooden cabins are available along the Cyinzobe trail. These campsites offer a cozy retreat amidst nature, allowing hikers to rest and rejuvenate after a day of exploration.
