Rules in force · 9Nine African countries on this site have no trip line bec…Carry an original yellow fever vaccination certificate on…Uneven pavements and traffic
  • Africa ↗When a route touches a yellow-fever country — even a transit of 12 hours or more — keep the original yellow card (ICVP) in your hand luggage; health desks and airlines can refuse boarding or entry without it.
  • Africa ↗Nine African countries on this site have no trip line because governments advise against travel; several others have no-go regions. Read your government's advice for every country on the route before paying deposits.
  • West Africa ↗Carry an original yellow fever vaccination certificate on any West African trip: several countries on the coast road demand it of every arrival, and the rest demand it after you have passed through a neighbour.
  • West Africa ↗Cross land borders and drive between cities in daylight only; plan each crossing as a full travel day with cash for fees and passport copies for checkpoints.
  • Togo ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport on official Togolese government sources before booking.
  • Togo ↗Governments advise against travel to parts of the far north (Savanes region) near the Burkina Faso border; check your own government's advice.
  • Lomé and the Coast ↗Avoid driving outside the city after dark: roads are poorly lit and vehicles are unlit.
  • Lomé ↗Uneven pavements and traffic: bags go from the car to the hotel door, never on a walk.
  • Lomé ↗After dark, take a car or a hotel-booked taxi door to door; do not walk between areas.

Rescue anchors

6 places to rest · checked on a 40 m (130 ft) grid

A rescue anchor is a spot where you can stop and recover if the walk goes wrong: a bench, a café, a toilet. Every letter on the map is one anchor, and each has a card below. We check that any point in the cluster is within about 7 minutes’ walk of one, so you are never far from somewhere to sit down.
