Description

This guide explores the geographical diversities of Lake Chad in the north, Mount Cameroon in the west, and the dense rainforests of the south. Details of getting around the country by bush-taxi, rail, car or on foot, together with accommodations from camping to mud-hut 'royal palaces', are balanced by a wealth of background information on history, geography, culture, and the environment. Cameroon offers excellent possibilities for hiking and encounters with big mammals, including large herds of elephant. Planning and preparation details for overland crossing into Cameroon from adjacent countries are provided to make this the complete guide for travelers.
