Equator route to the coast
From Accra to Cape Town the route runs along the Atlantic, crossing several of Africa's climate zones along the way, from the humid coast to the dry south of Namibia and beyond it.
West African culture
The route runs through Togo, known for its voodoo culture, and stops in Ouidah in Benin at the 'Way of No Return', an important site in the history of the slave trade on this coast of Africa.
Off-road stages in Cameroon
Across the Cameroonian bush the route leaves paved roads behind, with some of the most remote and demanding off-road sections of the entire equator trip along this stretch of coast.
Ten countries, 7,900 km
From Ghana through Nigeria and Congo to South Africa, you cross ten countries on this route in a single continuous motorcycle trip along the entire west coast of the African continent.
Gorillas in Congo
In the Republic of Congo you spend a night in a camp near the gorillas and take a speedboat to one of the last populations of lowland gorillas in this whole region of Central Africa.
