Nzerekore- Travel Tips

What to See, How to Plan & Tours

Nzérékoré is the largest city in southeastern Guinea and a major commercial hub in the Guinée Forestière region. Located about 570 km from Conakry, it has grown significantly due to migration from neighboring conflict-affected countries. Historically, it was a center of resistance against French rule in 1911 and has experienced periods of ethnic and political unrest. Today, Nzérékoré is known for its markets, silversmithing, and role in regional trade. The city has a tropical savanna climate with a long wet season and a notable temperature variation during the dry months.
