Ebogo Ecotourism Site
Site écotouristique d'Ebogo
A rainforest eco-area on the Nyong River near Mbalmayo, where you can travel through riverside forest by canoe and watch birds and butterflies.
The Ebogo Ecotourism Site lies about 60 km south of Yaoundé, on the Nyong River near Mbalmayo, and is managed with the participation of the local community. With a guide, visitors can paddle downstream by canoe through dense rainforest, watching kingfishers, hornbills and colourful butterflies and beetles. Once ashore, forest trails lead to giant trees. The site has simple rest pavilions and traditional huts. The entry fee includes the canoe. It is best reached by hired car as a day trip, and visitors should bring insect repellent and sun protection.
