Rutana waterfalls are a series of seven falls we hiked into in the southern part of Burundi. The drive to reach them is long and bumpy but utterly worth it. As we hiked into the falls, we scouted for monkeys and bright, local birds as we traversed around sweeping vistas. We hired three local guys to wander with us and show us around. They provided complimentary walking sticks, which I initially denied because I am from Idaho and have been hiking my whole life. But I should have listened because they were definitely needed as we crossed over some of the slippery, deep river areas of the hike! All in all, this is definitely a place I would take any visitor!
