Pico Basilé, towering at 3,011 meters (9,878 feet), is the highest peak in Equatorial Guinea and a prominent feature of Bioko Island. This dormant shield volcano, which last erupted in 1923, often shrouds its summit in clouds, revealing its full splendor only on rare clear days. The journey to the top can be undertaken by car, bike, or on foot, with each mode presenting its own challenges due to the steep and winding asphalt road. Despite the demanding ascent, the road is well-maintained but requires careful navigation, especially when driving. For cyclists, the steep gradients can be a rigorous test of endurance. Hikers face a 30-kilometer trek, mostly uphill, with limited scenic vistas en route. However, when the clouds part, Pico Basilé offers a commanding presence over Malabo, the capital city, making the effort worthwhile for those seeking to experience its grandeur.
10/10 trip last year and I loved the landscapes, it is not very difficult to get there and I really liked the soup

Fantastic drive on an excellent road to the extinct volcanic peak of Pico Basille. There is so much of pristine forest in Bioko. The endemic Fernando Po Speirops is found here. Awfully cold and windy at the top

It's was indeed a great view the temperature at the top can be very cold. If you are lucky enough to have a clear day, you will be presented with one of the most magnificent views on earth. In fact, you may find religion there.
