Trail-Marathon du Mt. Agou

Take on the challenge of conquering the Mount Agou of Togo - the highest peak at 986 meters! Here, you will not find snow, but instead, a world of untouched beauty. As part of the African Marathon Challenge, a series of charity events, our journey will begin with the AGERTO project, crossing the Kpalimé-Zongo market, down a dirt road and the base of Mt. Agou. From then on, the trails become narrower and the air fresher. Water from the mountain will refresh you while in the midst of a lush tropical forest. The villages are works of art, crafted over centuries. As guests, we will become part of the magic of the area, even if only for a short time. The marathon will end in Agou Nyogbo, a quiet village at the mountain's foot. When you finish, you will be proud and keep on smiling, knowing that this day will change your life! Come and join us for the "Running the Trails of Togo: A Weekend in Runners Paradise".
