The contrast between the two images we feature — a Batwa Today community chat and a Kigali Food Foray stroll — demonstrates the scope of what our walks can be. Unlike treks, these are activities that almost any person will manage and fully enjoy. We have included two food experiences in this overview, because they can be done on foot.
