KINIGI GUEST HOUSE

At times the locals call it “Village Touristique de Kinigi”. It is located on the foothills of the Virungas of
Rwanda, in Kinigi district, only 11 Km from Ruhengeri town. Kinigi Guest House is a good base to the panoramic commanding attractiveness of the volcanic mountain ranges of Virunga, the natural home of the exceptional mountain gorillas. It is situated at the bottom of Sabyinyo volcanic mountain.

Kinigi Guest House can be a home to more than 40 people and all rooms have electricity and warm water. For the more sensitive travelers, we have 1 VIP suite. Kinigi Guesthouse is perfectly positioned within very few minutes from the ORTPN head office, approximately 10minutes away from Ruhengeri.
The closeness and perfect location of Kinigi Guest House make the early morning gorilla trekking departures from the office much more convenient. Kinigi Guest house is nicely kept and cleaned plus the Virungas Mountains and volcanoes give spectacular outstanding views on a normal day.

Kinigi Guesthouse was constructed as an income generating project for the "Association de Solidarité des Femmes Rwandaises" (ASOFERWA), a non-profit making organization of especially widows and orphans). The income got from the Kinigi guest house is utilized for paying school fees for local orphan children, purchase land for agricultural projects, support groups of widows, and provide a market for art pieces of the local artists

Kinigi local community members are given jobs at Kinigi guest house, food plus other items are sourced from the local Kinigi community. The social responsibility idea behind Kinigi Guesthouse is investment in the local community and provision of responsible tourism
