Course
Gitenge–Kagunuzi and the Kaburantwa River are important tributaries on the east side of the Ruzizi river, with an estimated total hydroelectric potential of about 100 MW.[1] The Gitenge River forms above the Lac de Rwegura in the Parc national de la Kibira. It flows west-southwest between Cibitoke Province to the north and Bubanza Province to the south, and joins the Kagunuzi. The combined river enters the Ruzizi River to the sought of Ndava, Cibitoke.[2]
