GUIDED 3 DAYS BIKING THE CONGO NILE TRAIL FROM GISENYI TO KIBUYE

Start off with early breakfast and with your packed lunch begin your cycling expedition, biking around Lake Kivu, exploring fishing villages and interacting with local people along the way. Overnight at the Bumba camp site.

Difficulty: moderate

After eating your early breakfast at Bumba base camp with packed lunch, you will start cycling very early in the morning because this is going to be a more challenging day ride between Bumba and Karongi as it goes uphill all the way to Mukura Forest.  At an elevation of 2600 m at Mukura forest you have a wonderful view of the valleys to the east which drain into the Nile River and those to the West which drain into the Congo River. From Mukura forest, there is a long descent through Mukura Center and passing the Ntaruka Waterfall makes you reach the Muhanga-Karongi main road in Rwimpiri.

From Rwimpiri, we will cycle about 21km on tarmac road to reach Kibuye for your overnight stay at Home saint Jean.

Difficulty: Challenging.
