Mount Bisoke in an active volcano in the Virunga Mountains of the Albertine Rift, the western branch of the East African Rift. It straddles the border of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, but the summit is located in Rwanda.
Mount Bisoke stands at an elevation of 3,711 meters (12,175 feet) and is known for its steep slopes, rugged terrain, and beautiful Crater Lake. The hike to the summit of Mount Bisoke is a popular activity for visitors to Rwanda, and it typically takes about 6 to 7 hours round trip to complete.
The trail to the summit of Mount Bisoke passes through dense rainforest, bamboo forests, and open moorland before reaching the crater rim. From the rim, hikers can take a short detour to reach the shore of the Crater Lake, which is surrounded by steep cliffs and offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
Mount Bisoke is an important site for conservation efforts in the region, visitors are encouraged to respect the natural environment.

A friend recommended me to contact Nshuti Daniel. and he was really of great help. He helped with the booking, and the hiking in bisoke, however challenging, was a memorable experience. Thank you very much for the guidance and encouragement. I can't believe I made it to the top!

Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by NSHUTI Danie , and we felt welcomed and with such a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start! The journey to Musanze and the Hiking of Bisoke was extremely good, Danie was very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that He deserves a special thanks. We had a great day there, which obviously also added up to the experience.
Nshuti is such a warm personality and highly motivated with what he does (recommendable!).
The weather was beautiful and it was a great experience to hike in such environment.To spot some gorillas by chance and for free at the end going back was a great way to end the tour.
All respect for Nshuti who does a great job here in Rwanda; a true sample of excellent Travel and tour guide!
Many thanks again and I recommend Nshuti Danie to everyone!
