Dzanga-Sangha Complex of Protected Areas, Rainforest conservation complex in southwestern Central African Republic.
The Dzanga-Sangha Complex spans 4,589 square kilometers of dense forest, including specialized reserves and national parks along the Sangha River.
The protected area network, established in 1990, ended previous commercial timber exploitation activities from the 1970s and 1980s in favor of conservation.
The Baka people maintain traditional practices within designated zones of the reserve, contributing their knowledge to local conservation efforts.
Visitors can access two forest camps that provide guided tours for wildlife observation and research opportunities in different sections of the protected area.
The complex contains three groups of monitored gorillas and numerous forest clearings where elephants gather to access mineral-rich soil and water.
