This 1 Day Mount Bisoke Volcano hiking tour package is designed for both experienced mountain climbers and beginners. Mount Bisoke is a volcano found in the Virunga ranges that includes Rwanda’s volcanoes national park and Congo’s Virunga National Park. It reaches a height of 12,175 feet and was created as a result of earth movements around the East African Rift valley. This Bisoke hiking package is designed to allow visitors who may not have enough time to go for other interesting activities like Gorilla trekking to focus on hiking. To hike Mount Bisoke, one needs to be fit in preparation for the rough and steep edges. We recommend that visitors plan to bring along a porter to help with any extra heavy luggage.
