The geography of Rwanda

As you can see from our Rwanda map, the country is the shape of a fairly distorted Australia, but many times smaller. Its capital, Kigali, is located very slightly southeast of the country's centre. Lake Kivu dominates the country's western border and the Volcanoes National Park occupies a sliver of its northwestern boundary. Large patches of forest occur in the west of the country, and the Nyungwe Forest National Park occupies a large, irregular portion of the bulge at Rwanda's southwest.
