Mount Manengouba, Protected volcano in Littoral Region, Cameroon.
Mount Manengouba reaches an elevation of 2,411 meters, featuring twin crater lakes surrounded by green vegetation at 2,200 meters altitude.
The volcanic formation of Mount Manengouba occurred during the Pleistocene epoch, establishing its presence in the Cameroon volcanic line.
The Bakossi people consider the twin lakes sacred, where traditional ceremonies take place and the male lake remains accessible only to Mbo priests.
Visitors can access the mountain from Melong through Mbouroukou village, with tours including overnight stays at Hotel Villa Luciole.
The mountain contains two distinct crater lakes: a blue female lake shaped like Africa and a smaller, landlocked green male lake.
