This experience happens only in the Nyungwe forest. Here you can climb a ladder to the bridge that is suspended on top of the trees at a height of 70m and 160m long. The walk takes about 2 hours but rewards you with sightings of the Nyungwe forest, and different primates like the red-tailed monkeys, colobus monkeys, vervet monkeys, and much more.
Lots of bird species also will be heard singing deep in the forest, while others will be physically spotted.
