Nsele Valley Park (French: Parc de la Vallée de la Nsele), colloquially known as Kingakati Park or N'Sele Nature Reserve, is a nature reserve located in the Maluku commune of Kinshasa in the western region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). It is bordered to the north by the National N1, to the east by the Batéké Plateau, to the south by the Kindu group, the Nsingi mountains, and to the west by the Mangweme, Kindobo and Bambala villages. The park was established by then-President Joseph Kabila and his wife Olive Lembe di Sita and operates as a subsidiary of Ferme Espoir, an agro-food farm spanning Haut Katanga, Kongo Central, Kinshasa, and North Kivu.
