Mozogo Gokoro National Park, National park in northern Cameroon.
Mozogo Gokoro is a national park in northern Cameroon covering semi-evergreen forests, hills, grasslands, and wetlands in a mosaic of ecosystems. The varied terrain supports different species depending on the specific habitat found in each area.
The area first received protection as a reserve in 1932 and became a national park in 1968. This progression shows how the site has been recognized over time for its ecological importance.
Five ethnic groups—Mafa, Mandara, Kanuri, Glavda, and Peul—have inhabited these lands for generations and continue to shape the social fabric of the region. Their presence is woven into the daily life and traditions of the surrounding communities.
Visitors must obtain official permits before entering the park. Plan your visit during the dry season when wildlife watching conditions are at their best.
The Mayo Nguetchewe is a seasonal stream that flows from north to south through the park, forming vital pathways where animals move between habitats. This seasonal water source shapes how wildlife uses the landscape throughout the year.
