Mount Agou, Mountain summit in Kloto, Togo.
Mount Agou rises 986 meters above sea level in southwestern Togo, forming part of the Atakora Mountains near the border with Ghana.
The mountain, previously named Baumann Peak during German colonial rule from 1880s to World War I, served as a strategic military location.
The Ewe people inhabit the region around Mount Agou, while Adangme refugees settled there in the late seventeenth century to escape slave traders.
Access to Mount Agou requires navigation through dirt roads connecting local villages, with guides available in nearby Kpalime for mountain expeditions.
The slopes of Mount Agou support coffee and cocoa plantations, while a former World War II hospital at its peak now functions as a communications center.
