Volcanoes National Park (Rwanda) is a spectacular protected area in northern Rwanda, best known for safeguarding the endangered mountain gorillas. Located within the Virunga Mountain range, the park is characterized by dramatic volcanic peaks, dense bamboo forests, montane rainforests, and mist-covered slopes.

The park is home to several volcanoes, including Mount Karisimbi, Mount Bisoke, and Mount Muhabura, and supports rich biodiversity such as golden monkeys, forest elephants, birds, and diverse plant species. Volcanoes National Park is internationally renowned for gorilla trekking, allowing visitors to hike through rugged terrain for a rare, close encounter with gorillas in their natural environment. It also plays a vital role in conservation and research, continuing the legacy of Dian Fossey, whose work helped save mountain gorillas from extinction.
