Batéké Plateau National Park, National park in Haut-Ogooué Province, Gabon.

The Batéké Plateau National Park extends over 2,034 square kilometers of diverse landscapes including grasslands, savannas, and gallery forests along waterways.

The national park, established in 2002, represents a critical conservation area that gained recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Tentative Site in 2005.

The territory holds deep connections to the Bateke people who maintain traditional practices and knowledge about the natural resources of the plateau region.

Visitors can access the park through guided tours that include wildlife observation, hiking trails, and educational programs about the local ecosystems.

In 2015, researchers documented a male lion in the park, genetically linked to historical populations from Gabon and the Republic of the Congo.
