Lobi's country 4 days

DAY 1: after breakfast, departure for GAOUA. A first stop to see sacred crocodiles that live in the pond of SABOU. Lunch at BOROMO, a place where you will, maybe, meet elephants. Finally, arrival in Gaoua for diner and night at the Hala hotel.

DAY 2: you will go to the museum of GAOUA: it will give you the opportunity of being initiated to the Lobi's culture (statuettes; usual tools, photos, explanatory notice boards). The aim of that day is the discovery of Lobi's villages where, sometimes, it is possible to assist to traditional ceremonies. Diner and night at the Hala hotel.

DAY 3: visit of LOROPENI (the origins of the fort are unknown, it may have been a place where slaves were collected). Arriving at OBIRE, you will perhaps meet the king of the Gan (small ethnic group insisting on keeping their identity). Visit of Lobi’ villages. Diner and night at the Hala hotel.

DAY 4: near DIEBOUGOU, you will visit a small fort cave, dated from the first war and made by germans. Lunch in LEO (in a local restaurant). You will arrive in OUAGA in the middle of the afternoon.
