    Congo Nile Trail141 mi
    RwandaJan - Feb, June - Sept
    The Congo Nile Trail follows the watershed between the Congo and Nile Rivers in western Rwanda along the shorline of Lake Kivu. It passes by picturesque bays, inlets, and waterfalls, and makes for a fascinating exploration of the country. Hiking season is more pleasant during the drier parts of the year, so it is best to avoid the two rainy seasons.
