Rwanda’s tourism sector is reaching new heights with the upcoming launch of two major eco-adventure attractions in Nyungwe National Park, set to open in June 2025. Nature lovers and thrill-seekers alike can now look forward to experiencing the forest like never before, through a state-of-the-art zipline and an exhilarating high rope course.
The zipline, which will be the longest in East Africa, spans up to 1.9 kilometers, gliding between the Uwinka Reception Centre and the famed Canopy Walk area. Suspended 20 to 50 meters above the ground, it offers a breathtaking flight over Nyungwe’s ancient rainforest, with stunning views of its unique flora and fauna.
Complementing the zipline is a newly built rope course, a forest-suspended network of elevated bridges, tightropes, and climbing challenges. Designed for all levels of adventure, this physically engaging experience offers a perfect mix of fun, fitness, and forest immersion — ideal for families, groups, and team-building getaways.
These new experiences are expected to boost visitation, support conservation, and create meaningful opportunities for nearby communities. They mark a bold step in Rwanda’s journey to becoming a top-tier destination for sustainable and immersive tourism in Africa.
