About this activity
Mount Cameroon is a volcano, the highest point of the Cameroon-West Africa line with an estimated altitude of about 4,095 meters.
In order to make the hike accessible to as many people as possible, we organize the trip in palliation over 3 days, with 2 nights spent in newly renovated and very comfortable mountain huts. In terms of security, Mount Cameroon Park is supervised by the joint forces of the BIR and forest rangers.
This hike is for people in perfect physical condition, or used to mountain hiking. The difficulty of some passages lies between difficult and very difficult. You do not climb Mount Cameroon without experience or training.
During the 3 days of hiking, we will climb a positive 3000 meters elevation gain to reach the summit, before descending again.
