Nearly 40 km northeast of Pointe-Noire, the Makota salt glacier is an impressive site that grew out of potash mining by the CPC (Compagnie des Potasses du Congo), abruptly halted in 1977 following a flood caused by groundwater. Although the visit is breathtaking, the glacier is a disaster for the environment, as nothing grows there any more and salt water has invaded the freshwater streams. Today, the village's families make a living from the salt they gather in the traditional way.
