It then runs 93 kilometres (58 mi) to Lubutu, 132 kilometres (82 mi) to Pene Tungu and finally 97 kilometres (60 mi) to Kisangani. [1] Kisangani is a river port, the farthest navigable point on the Congo River from the capital Kinshasa. Riverboats and small ships link Kisangani to Kinshasa. [2]
A train runs after arrival at Kisangani of a ship from Kinshasa or before departure of a ship to Kinshasa, which may happen about every 2 to 3 month, no fixed schedule. There is no connecting boat service between Ubundu and Kindu on the Lualaba River (the upper Congo). [12]
