Rehabilitation works are progressing well and we're excited for all Rwandans and visitors to experience Kigali's restored wetlands, including enjoying the walking/cycling paths, sports areas, fishing ponds and other recreational activities. See you there soon!
Have you noticed the rehabilitation activity in Kigali wetlands? Coming up: Five wetlands, covering 500 hectares, touching 10 sectors of Kigali, will help reduce floods, improve water quality, restore biodiversity, and will have 58.5 km of walkways and cycling paths to boost
