A volcano you can climb to the summit of via an annual race the locals treat as a national holiday, rainforest thick enough to hide forest elephants and gorillas both, and a coastline of black volcanic sand nobody outside the country seems to know about yet.
The best time to visit Douala & Mount Cameroon is Nov–Mar, when typical daytime highs reach about 31°C (87°F).
