When planning a trip to Africa, many people overlook Togo as an option. However, this small country is home to some of the most beautiful natural landscapes on the continent. If you're looking for an adventure off the beaten path, Togo is definitely worth exploring.

One of the highlights of Togo is its coastline. The Gulf of Guinea is a stunning stretch of turquoise water and white sand beaches. There are plenty of opportunities for swimming, sunbathing, and fishing here. Another highlight is Mount Agou, which towers over the landscape at 3,445 feet. This dormant volcano offers hikers some amazing views from the summit.

In addition to its natural wonders, Togo is also home to a variety of cultural attractions. The capital city, Lomé, is home to a vibrant nightlife and a wide variety of traditional markets. There are also a number of mosques and colonial-era buildings that are worth exploring.

So if you're looking for an adventure off the beaten path, be sure to add Togo to your list. With its stunning natural beauty and rich culture, you won't be disappointed.
