Rulindo District


Rulindo is a district (akarere) in Northern Province, Rwanda. Its capital is Mugote (also known as Remera).

The district lies roughly halfway between Kigali and Ruhengeri, and is very mountainous, containing Mount Kabuye. Its principal town, Tare (more commonly known as Nyirangarama), serves as a rest and refreshment stop for most long distance bus services between Kigali and Gisenyi and Goma.
