Just behind the mound, there is a lake where hippos splash around. They can be seen around the lake early in the morning, around 6:00 am, or late in the afternoon, from 4:30 pm. During the day, the myriad of hippos submerge completely to avoid the heat, sometimes leaving a pair of eyes to surface. A promontory has been built to observe them. The trail is as admirable as the activity itself, with the rice fields imported by the Chinese decades ago, and still farmed by local families.

Magnifique visite des hippos. Prévoir des jumelles pour pouvoir les voir lorsqu'ils sont vers le milieu du lac. Le cadre était magnifique et les pêcheurs pêchent dans l'eau, à proximité des hippos. Nous sommes restés jusqu'au coucher de soleil et avons pu voir les oiseaux et même un singe sur une des berges. Le petit hic, concerne le prix de la visite qui est annoncé à 2000 cfa par tête par le gardien des lieux, mais rien n'est affiché alors nous avons dû négocier.

The site very pretty and is well preserved. To get there, take the path on the right in facede Cap train station. At the end, the level it water tower, turn left. Then it is always very good, you will pass before the technical school then in front of the military area. Then you will cross the rice fields, after that you will see a sign that reserve hippos is listed (there the track should be taken on the left). Good visit! Beware of the city guides offer the visit to 6000FCFA. A donation to the protector of the site seems more served! Get there quite in medium/end afternoon, morning they enter the water to around 5:00, we went there at 8:00, they were already far in the pond!

Visite en février 2014 : Comme indiqué sur le guide, à 5 minutes de Nangbeto on peut observer les hippos. La matinée vers 10h00, nous avons pu observerune dizaine d'hippos ! Super ! Les Gardes forestiers vous mettrons en relation avec des jeunes pilotes de Zémidjans (taxi-motos) qui vous y emmèneront en moto !

It is true that it is necessary to want to go to Nangbeto but the game is worth candles. Just off the dam, around 9:30, we saw 5 or 6 hippopotamuses grazed quietly on the bank. 10 minutes later low back in the water!
