The Mbirurume rises in forested country in southern Rwanda to the east of the Congo-Nile Divide.[1] It originates in the extreme north of the Nyungwe National Park, in the Nyamagabe District. It flows in a northeast direction, entering Karongi District and passes Mukungu to the west, then runs in a northeast direction along the border between Nyamagabe and Karongi districts. It then turns southeast shortly before meeting the Mwogo River from the left.[2][3] The combined rivers form the Nyabarongo River, which flows northward along the eastern slopes of the Nile-Congo divide.[1]
