Goma

Climb Nyiragongo Volcano

€” this volcano, famous for its lava lake, is a technically easy climb from the direction of goma. a trip to the top should take ~6-8 hours, so most climbers spend the night at the top. entrance permits cost us$100. the park was closed in may 2009 due to the rebel occupation but was reopened in march 2010. the permit is now 200$. hakuna matata tours, . offers a 2-day climb and tour of goma. owner is a native of the region and very friendly, but it can take time to track him down. it's better bring your own equipment when trekking the volcano as the stuff hakunamatata tours provide is of low quality e.g. leaking tents ~$320.  edit
