Golden monkey trekking in Rwanda

Golden Monkey Trekking in Rwanda

 

Apart from Uganda, Golden monkeys can also be trekked in Rwanda in Volcanoes National Park. Just as Mgahinga National park, Volcanoes National Park is also a primate sanctuary. 

Here there are (2) golden monkey groups which can be visited in Rwanda. These are located at Mt Sabyinyo with the bigger group having about 90 individuals.

On your trekking day, you drive to the park offices (Kinigi Headquarters) at 7:00am, you register and then assigned to a group. You then start on the trek and on locating the monkeys you spend 1 hr with the primates and then trek back out of the forest to the lodge for other optional activities

The cost of Golden Monkey trekking in Rwanda is $100 and Gorilla Trekking is $1500

Currently In Rwanda, Habituation is not done but this safari can be done in combination with Gorilla trekking and Habituation.
