Nyakazu Faults

Rutana, Burundi

A Massive and impressive gorge-like scenery with several hundred meters high cliffs, the Nyakazu Fault is very close to the Tanzania border. Site of German military fortification from World War I, you find there a perennial waterfall with a height over 100 m.

In 1914, at the beginning of the First World War, Nyakazu was a German military post built to control the eastern part of the country to Tanzania. There can still be found some remains of a German fortification. The fault is on the Unesco WHS Tentative list.
