Is Nyungwe Forest National Park in Rwanda home to any monkeys?

As dawn approaches, the mist rolls in over the forested hills of western Rwanda, enveloping the area in a kaleidoscope of natural noises and sights. Among the thirteen primate species found in the magical Nyungwe Forest National Park are the secretive chimpanzee and the gregarious Angolan colobus monkey. Those who go on walking safaris have a good chance of seeing these monkeys.

Early morning is excellent time to watch the chimpanzees because that’s slope game when they’re foraging in the trees. Wake up at 3:45 in the morning and be ready for a challenging but rewarding hike with park rangers and trackers to reach their home deep in the jungle. It is more easier to go on expeditions to see the beautiful Angolan colobus monkeys. Among the most spectacular and well-planned safari lodges now operating, One&Only Nyungwe House is located on the forest’s edge and is sure to impress. In this magical setting, you may discover a balance between active recreation and rest and relaxation (including spa treatments).

To prevent the annihilation of Nepal’s dwindling population of one-horned rhinoceroses, the country established Chitwan National Park in the early 1970s. Since then, the park’s population has gone from about 200 to over 600 and is still doing strong, all thanks to persistent conservation efforts. This unique park was well-received by conservationists, but it was also intriguing to Taj Safaris, a firm that had already set up a luxury tiger safari circuit in neighboring India. On the outskirts of Chitwan, the company opened a lodge in 2017 called Meghauli Serai, A Taj Safari. Spotting rhinos is the primary attraction at this resort. Today, you can go on daily trips in search of these enormous animals by land vehicle, canoe, boat, or foot, and there’s a good chance you’ll see them every time.
