Faro Reserve
Faro Reserve is a nature reserve in Cameroon that encompasses forests, river valleys, and open plains across a vast area. The landscape contains diverse wildlife and different habitat zones that form a complex ecosystem.
The reserve was established to protect an important natural landscape and its wildlife from threats. Since then, it has served as a refuge for species facing pressure in other regions.
A visit is best during the dry season when trails are more accessible and wildlife spotting becomes easier. Visitors should connect with local guides, as the terrain is large and navigation without support can be difficult.
The reserve functions as a crucial corridor for migrating animal species that move seasonally between different habitats. These migration patterns make it a place where seasonality strongly shapes the wildlife you encounter.
