TAYNA GORILLA RESERVE

Located about 100 kilometers southwest of Butembo and 250 kilometers northwest of Goma, the Tayna Gorilla Reserve, which covers just over 90,000 hectares, aims to protect lowland gorillas as well as the local populations of these regions. It is located between the Maiko Park, the Virunga Park and the Kahuzi-Biega Park. It is part of a project to create a vast biodiversity corridor linking these different protected areas.
