The climate of Djambala (Congo)
Djambala is located in the southeastern part of the Republic of Congo
and is the capital of the Plateaux region. Most tourists travel to
this region to visit Léfini Faunal Reserve. This reserve was
established in the 1950s and has a surface area of 6,300 square
kilometers. The reserve is mainly for the gorilla population that
lives here. The gorillas that live here are protected and an
‘orphanage’ for baby gorillas that were left behind can be found here.
These babies are brought up here and will be helped with their return
into the wild. Djambala has a tropical monsoon climate characterized
by fairly constant and high temperatures all year round. Precipitation
figures are less stable. There is a distinct dry period in June, July
and August. During the rest of the year heavy rainfall is not
uncommon.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
