Lango Camp, overlooking Lango bai in Odzala- Kokoua NP, Congo
ODZALA, CONGO
Spread across six countries and covering approximately 3.5 million sq km — in which can be found 10,000 types of plant, 700 varieties of fish, and 1000 bird and 400-plus animal species — the Congo Basin is a patchwork of forests, savannahs, rivers and swamps teeming with life. Here, more than anywhere, the benefits of eco-tourism can be reaped, most specially in Odzala-Kokoua National Park in Congo. From firefly lightshows to shadowy forest elephants and masses of lowland gorillas; from wading waistdeep in water following centuries-old trails to night walks; from watching forest life to encounters with pygmys… Odzala immerses you in the heart of Africa’s tropical forest.
