Mt. Bisoke is a dormant volcano, located within the Volcanoes National Park. It is approximately three hours drive from Kigali capital city. Starting off the Bisoke crater hike requires hikers to first meet their guide and group at the park reception. At the station, hikers can expect to have a briefing about the hike from one of the rangers. They will then guide visitors to the parking area to begin the hike which lasts for six hours.
