Crystal mountains
Description:
The Crystal Mountains are located in the western part of Gabon in the northern part of the Ogove River. The mountains are very dissected, their height ranges from 140 to 900 meters.
The territory belongs to a national park, because the slopes of the mountains are rich in plant diversity and covered with evergreen tropical forests, untouched by civilization. Rivers flowing through the mountains form rapids and magnificent waterfalls. Here are forest elephants, gorillas, buffaloes, chimpanzees and other mammals.
The Crystal Mountains are one of the few places in the country where leopards are found, as well as an abundance of begonias and orchids.
