Nature & Outdoors

The Democratic Republic of the Congo's landscape is defined by the volcanic Virunga Mountains, home to active peaks like Nyiragongo and Nyamuragira. The region preserves rare biodiversity, including the world's only bonobo sanctuary and the Okapi Wildlife Reserve. Significant hydrological features include the Boyoma Falls, a series of seven cataracts, and the 340-meter-high Lofoi Falls. Protected areas like Kahuzi-Biéga National Park safeguard eastern lowland gorillas, while the Kisantu Botanical Gardens showcase over a century of botanical research.
