Akagera National Park has an inspiring conservation story as it is now home to lions and rhinos, and is the only Big-five Park in the country.
Just two hours' drive from Kigali, it is a beautiful and convenient savannah landscape to visit, and easy site to add on to before or after visiting the gorillas.
For one park, the diversity of habitats is unique including lakes, marshes, savannah, mountains, and woodland makes for spectacular scenery.
A birders delight, Akagera offers an exceptional birding experience with more than 482 bird species documented including the rare and prehistoric shoebill and some Lake Victoria endemics.
Visiting the parks is one of the best ways to support communities, wildlife conservation, and long term success of Africa's wild areas.
