About
A raised watchtower over Langoué Baï, a large forest clearing in Ivindo National Park visited by forest elephants, western lowland gorillas and sitatunga. Reaching it involves a quad-bike ride and a two to three hour forest hike to a basic base camp, so trips are multi-day and arranged in advance.
