Tucked away at the base of the Virunga volcanoes, the Twin Lakes of Burera and Ruhondo are some of Rwanda’s most breathtaking hidden gems. These sister lakes, connected by a narrow stretch of water, are surrounded by rolling hills, terraced farms, and distant volcano peaks. Far from the busier tourist routes, the Twin Lakes offer peace, scenic beauty, and authentic cultural encounters.

At Umurage Eco Safaris, we invite you to slow down, soak in the tranquility, and discover why these lakes are often called the crown jewels of Rwanda’s natural landscapes.
