Top choice in Burkina Faso
One of Burkina Faso's most spectacular landscapes, the Sindou Peaks are a narrow, craggy chain featuring a fantastic array of tortuous cones sculpted by the elements; a 45-minute guided walk is included with admission.

Coming from Banfora, the main gateway is about 1km before the entrance to Sindou town.
