Best time to travel to Cameroon

Cameroon, known as "Africa in Miniature," offers a diverse range of landscapes and cultural experiences. The best time to visit depends on what you want to see and do. Generally, the dry season from November to February is ideal for most travelers.

In November, the weather is pleasant with temperatures ranging from 20° to 30°. This is a great time to explore the coastal city of Douala, where you can enjoy the beaches and vibrant markets.

December and January are perfect for visiting Yaoundé, the capital city, with temperatures around 18° to 28°. The city's lush greenery and numerous parks are in full bloom.

For wildlife enthusiasts, the dry season is the best time to visit national parks like Waza and Korup. In Waza National Park, located in the Far North Region, you can spot elephants, lions, and giraffes more easily when the vegetation is sparse.

The temperatures here can be quite warm, ranging from 25° to 35°.

If you're interested in trekking, Mount Cameroon is best climbed between November and February. The cooler temperatures, ranging from 10° to 20°, make the ascent more manageable.

Overall, the dry season offers the most comfortable weather and the best opportunities for outdoor activities, making it the ideal time to visit Cameroon.
