Manyu River

Last updated June 05, 2025

The Manyu River rises near Wabane

in the Upper Banyang Subdivision of the Manyu Department of the Southwest Region, Cameroon.^[1]

The river runs past the southern border of the Mone River Forest Reserve. Below Mamfe, it is joined by rivers draining the Takamanda Forest Reserve and the Cross River National Park in neighboring Nigeria. These protected areas are important habitats for the critically endangered Cross River gorilla.^[2] Around the Nigerian border the river takes the name of the Cross River.^[3]
