About Togo

Togo is one of Africa's narrowest countries, running from a short Atlantic coastline up through forested hills to dry savanna in the north. Lome spreads along the coast, the hills around Kpalime and Mount Agou offer walking and waterfalls, Togoville sits on Lake Togo, and the north around Kara and the Koutammakou valley holds the mud tower houses of the Batammariba. The dry season from November to March is easiest for travel, while the rains fall heaviest in the south.
