Ogooué-Létili (department)

Ogooué-Létili is a department of Gabon, located in the province of Haut-Ogooué. Its capital city is Boumango. The department is situated in the east of the country and borders the Republic of the Congo. The department is characterized by its dense equatorial rainforest and is part of the larger Congo Basin. The Ogooué River, a major waterway in Gabon, traverses the region. The department's economy is primarily based on forestry, agriculture, and to a lesser extent, mining. The population is relatively sparse and concentrated in settlements along the river. Access to the region is often challenging, relying on river transport and limited road infrastructure.
