Volcanoes National Park
Volcanoes National Park, encompassing five dormant volcanoes within the Virunga Mountains, is world-famous as the mountain gorilla sanctuary where conservationist Dian Fossey conducted her research. The high-altitude bamboo slopes and misty volcanic peaks have served as a realm of deep spiritual significance for centuries. Beneath its ecological fame lies a tapestry of mountain legends, stories of ancestral volcano spirits, and mysterious encounters linked to the remote grave site of Dian Fossey deep in the saddle of Mount Karisimbi.
