Introducing Maroua
Dusty Maroua, Cameroon’s northernmost major town, is popular with travellers. It’s a good starting point for exploring the nearby Mandara Mountains and Parc National de Waza, or to catch your breath if you’re tackling the nearby borders with Chad and Nigeria. Neem trees lines the streets, and there’s an easygoing feel in the air. With its good range of accommodation and facilities, you can easily spend a little longer here than you had anticipated.
