About Ruhengeri
Ruhengeri, also called Musanze, is a town in northern Rwanda below the Virunga volcanoes, the usual base for visiting the park's mountain gorillas.
Ruhengeri lies at about 1,850 metres in northern Rwanda, on a fertile plain below a line of volcanoes in the Virunga range. The town, also known as Musanze, is a market and transport centre in a region of potato fields and pyrethrum farms. Its cool, misty climate comes from the altitude, and the cone-shaped peaks of Bisoke, Karisimbi and Sabyinyo loom on the skyline.
