Togo

Narrow West African country linking Lomé's beaches with forested Kpalimé hills and northern savanna.

Togo is a little gem; it really is one of the nicest countries to visit in West-Africa. Roads are pretty good, distances small, beaches sandy and white, people friendly, hills and mountains waiting to be explored. What else do you need?

The capital city, Lome is an excellent place to start your trip. Beaches start right in the center of town, and are pretty clean. Lots of daytrips can be made to Togoville on the borders of Lake Togo or Aneho.

When you go north Kpalime and its beautiful hilly surroundings deserve a visit; trekking and hiking in the area is wonderful. Continue further north if you are into hiking. Kara is the place to go. Nearby is Tamberma Valley which has intriguing castle like structures. The national parks of Fazao and Keran offer good opportunities to view wildlife.
