Dja River

The Dja River (also known as the Ngoko River) is a stream in west-central Africa. It forms part of Cameroon-Republic of Congo border and has a course of roughly 450 miles (720 km).

Rising southeast of the southeastern Cameroon town of Abong-Mbang, the Dja Faunal Reserve, which was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, lies along the banks of its upper course. It protects one of the largest tracts of tropical rainforest in Africa. The Dja flows approximately southeast past Moloundou, below which small boats can navigate. At Ouesso, in the Republic of Congo, it empties into the Sangha River.
