The capital of Cameroon's Far North Region, Maroua spreads along the banks of the Ferngo and Kaliao Rivers in the foothills of the Mandara Mountains — a large city where the rivers and the mountain backdrop shape daily life. It is the main urban centre of the region and carries a Wikivoyage entry, signalling some independent traveller infrastructure.
