Hiking Mount Gahinga offers breathtaking features such as the Volcanic Caves and a caldera at its peak. Mount Gahinga is the smallest and lowest of the 8 Virunga Volcanoes, standing at 3474 meters (11,464 feet) above sea level, with its borders shared by Uganda and Rwanda.

Gahinga is loosely translated as “Pile of stones” in the local Kinyarwanda language.

The hike takes you through the bamboo forest, a paradise for a medley of wildlife species such as mountain gorillas, Black-fronted duikers, golden monkeys, bushbucks, etc. The volcano's peak has a beautiful swamp with unique flora and stunning views.
