This is Nyakazu nature reserve, close by some of the communities where Floresta Burundi is working. These cliffs must be at least 100 metres in height, and from where I took this picture you are looking down on a dense tropical forest. The ranger that accompanied us told us there are chimps down there. I am hoping next time I return that we can hike down into the fault and exit on the plain in the background. It's pretty spectacular--an unexpected pocket of vibrant wilderness surrounded by otherwise typical farmland. I've been visiting farms only a few kilometres from here for 4 years, and had no idea this was hidden away in the nearby hills.
