The diversity of Nyungwe National Park in Rwanda.

Nyungwe National Park is primarily a rainforest, but it also boasts a diverse range of habitats such as swamps, marshes, bamboo thickets, heath communities, open woodland, and microhabitats. The park is situated in the westernmost region of the Great Rift Valley, also known as the Albertine Rift, which stretches from Lake Albert to Lake Tanganyika. This area is home to many large mountains and lakes that drain into either the Congo River system to the west or the Nile River system to the east and north. Along with its stunning landscapes, the Albertine Rift is famous for its high number of endemic species of plants and animals. Nyungwe National Park alone has over 1,400 plant species, at least 85 mammal species (including 13 primates), and over 340 bird species.
