Rumonge Province, Administrative province in western Burundi
Located on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, Rumonge Province spans 1,079 square kilometers of diverse landscapes including forests and waterfront territories.
The province was established in March 2015 by merging regions from Bururi Province and Bujumbura Rural Province to improve administrative organization.
Local communities in Rumonge Province maintain strong connections to Lake Tanganyika through traditional fishing practices and water-based activities.
The province contains five administrative communes: Bugarama, Burambi, Buyengero, Muhuta, and Rumonge, with the city of Rumonge serving as capital.
Rumonge Province houses two ecological treasures: the Rumonge Nature Reserve with semi-deciduous forest and Kigwena Nature Reserve with lowland tropical vegetation.
