Akagera National Park is a remarkable wildlife reserve in eastern Rwanda, spanning approximately 1,122 square kilometers. Named after the Akagera River along its eastern boundary, the park boasts diverse ecosystems, including savannahs, wetlands, woodlands, and lakes. This variety makes it a sanctuary for the Big Five—lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants, and buffalos—as well as giraffes, zebras, hippos, and over 500 bird species. The park's wetlands, fed by the Akagera River, are among the largest in Central Africa, offering habitats for a rich array of aquatic and birdlife.
After years of decline, Akagera underwent a transformative rehabilitation in 2010 through a partnership with African Parks, resulting in the reintroduction of lions and rhinos. Visitors can explore its scenic beauty through activities like game drives, boat safaris on Lake Ihema, and birdwatching.
