The Comoé river
You enter by water. The Bettié bridge — 189 metres, opened in December 2017 — crosses the Comoé: a line of concrete laid across a country of earth and timber.
We climb towards the east
Five stages in the direction the light crosses the country: from the Comoé river to Bron country, by way of the capital of the Indénié kingdom.
Choose a packageThe stages
Abengourou
Capital of the Indénié kingdom: the Royal Palace, the Royal Museum, the cathedral, the markets, the craft workshops — and Espace Le Verger, at Adoukoffikro.
Niablé — Osséikro
Thirty kilometres from Ghana. The road is tarred in stretches and laterite in stretches: you change surface the way you change country.
The Djuablin kingdom
Royal villages, living traditions. You arrive as the shadows lengthen, and you leave before the night tips over.
Bondoukou
Bron country. The walls are raised in banco — steeped clay, straw, rice husks — and run through with wooden beams that come out on both sides.
Written authorisations from the traditional authorities to depict royal sites and places of worship have not yet been obtained. No royal emblem, no identifiable gold weight, no sacred stool and no recognisable place of worship appears on this site — the iconography here is deliberately abstract.
How long you stay
1 day
Découverte
Abengourou and Le Verger. The shape of a day out from Abidjan: leave early, eat on site, head back before the 6 pm tip-over.
2 days · 1 night
Royale
The estate, the table and the nearest stages. A full day, a night on site, a second morning in the grove.
4 days · 3 nights
Grand Est
The whole route, from the Comoé river to Bondoukou. You follow the sun west to east, stage by stage, into Bron country. The five stages, in order: the Bettié bridge over the Comoé, the capital of the Indénié kingdom, the Ghanaian border at Niablé, the royal villages of the Djuablin, then the banco walls of Bondoukou. Three nights on the road, with the estate as start and finish.

Three steps, then a conversation. The request lands in your own WhatsApp — you read it over before sending, and a person from the estate replies.
