Banfora

- Classic Burkina Faso

Banfora may appear as a sleepy town, but it is best described as one of the most beautiful areas in Burkina Faso. It makes an ideal base for exploring the lush surrounding countryside: scaling up the magnificent Dômes de Fabedougou and taking a dip in the Karfiguéla Falls and a boat ride on Tengréla Lake.

Gaoua is a thriving market town in southern Burkina Faso known for its superstitious values and customs. Located in the red earth, green hills, and fast-flowing streams of southwestern Burkina Faso, Gaoua forms the centre for the sacred rites and bush lore of the Lobi tribes.
