Rumpi Hills, Cameroon
Rumpi Hills is a hill and is northwest of Itende and Bonji and west of Mekoma. Rumpi Hills has an elevation of 665 metres.
The Rumpi Hills, situated to the north of Mount Cameroon, west of the Bakossi mountains and south-east of Korup National Park, include a number of peaks over 1,000 m, the highest of which is Mount Rata, 1,768 m. Many of the peaks are the result of extensive faulting, so that there are no classic volcanic cones with craters. Part of the site comprises an area of mid-altitude forest, largely degraded by logging and agricultural encroachment. Mount Rata has more intact forest than the surrounding areas. In addition to the mid-altitude forest, coastal evergreen and drier northern semi-evergreen forest elements occur. There are many permanent watercourses.
