Rwanda is a mountainous country just south of the equator in central Africa. This tiny, landlocked country is also the continent's most densely populated. Conflict and civil war between ethnic Hutus and Tutsis have marked the country's history, but the country has stabilized considerably and tourism is increasing thanks to its main attraction of mountain gorilla trekking in Volcano National Park. It has a comfortable climate year round with an average daytime temperature of 77˚F.
