From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The N1 road of Gabon is a road that runs from Libreville to Tchibanga that takes approximately 12 hours to drive. The portion of the road from Tchibanga to the border with Congo-Brazzaville is traveled infrequently due to the instability in the later country. However, it usually takes approximately two hours to reach the border.
The N1 is paved until Lambarene. Upon exiting that city, it become dirt. It is difficult to travel during the rainy season (February through May) due to large puddles and deep mud.
A bush taxi (pick-up truck used as the primary mode of transportation in Gabon) may be taken from Libreville to Tchibanga for approximately 20,000 Central African Francs.
