Overlanding From Nigeria to Cameroon: A Journey Through Africa's Heart. Part 1, Cameroon border

Описание: On May 4th 2025, right at the start of the rainy season, we set out on a challenging overland route in West Africa - the infamous Banyo-Mayo track, crossing from Nigeria into Cameroon.

When we left, the rain was pouring down. The tracks were wet, visibility was low, and everything around us was mud and chaos. But as the days went on, the skies cleared... enough for us to make our move. We had a lot of luck.

We were driving the MAN HX60 - a military-grade expedition truck, and honestly, one of the best vehicles for a mission like this. With its 4WD system, low gear and reduced tire pressure, it tackled the steep inclines, rocky trails, and deep mud like a beast. The truck performed flawlessly. We never get stuck.

This is no ordinary road.
This is a true off-road test - of grit, gear, and determination.

We had a lot of fun doing the track. To be honest, it was a lot easier than we anticipated. We heard bad stories about the track but if you do it slowly, take your time it is a great experience.

On the track you can vist several small villages. But be aware, there is no support if you have any problems with your vehicle. So be prepared.

This video is part one. From the main road till the border of Cameroon. Have a look also at part 2 at    • Overlanding From Nigeria to Cameroon: A Jo...  

Let's take you through it.
